Hi,

Trying to boot an ISO image (memtest86+-5.01.iso) using sanboot.

I've tried http://.../<uncompressed isofile> which fails.
I've also written (using dd) that iso file to a new 8MB ISCSI LUN and 
tried that with iscsi:<ip>::::<san uri> which also fails.

In both cases, I get the following:

-----
...
INT13 drive 80 contains an ISO9660 filesystem; treating as CD-ROM
INT13 drive 80 has an El Torito boot catalog at LBA 0000001a
INT13 drive 80 (naturally 80) registered with C/H/S geometry 0/0/0
INT13 drive 80 added to drive count: 1 HDDs, 0 FDDs
Registered SAN device 0x80
Booting from SAN device 0x80

INT 13 drive 80 invalid blocksize (2048) for non-extended read/write
INT13,02 (80) failed with status 01
INT13 drive 80 could not read MBR (status 01)
INT13 drive 80 El Torito requires emulation type 02
Boot from SAN device 0x80 failed: Operation not supported 
(http://ipxe.org/3c852003)
INT13 drive 80 unregistered
Unregistered SAN device 0x80
...

I'm using latest master version... git commit 93acbd5

Any ideas where to look / what to try now?
