[ipxe-devel] Sanboot And ISO Images?

[Dyweni - iPXE-Devel]

Thanks for the replies.

I ended up using the 4.20 and 5.01 ELF builds of Memtest86+.  The zImage 
versions both reported that the requested memory was not available.

Oddly, the 5.01 ELF version errors out immediately after it starts 
scanning (both under VirtualBox and a physical machine).  The physical 
machine gives a couple beeps and reboots instantly.  The 4.20 ELF 
version reports no errors on the same physical machine.  Has anyone else 
encountered this?

Thanks,
