Version of unattended: unattended-4.4b
Problem: Getting the message "PXE-E79: NBP is too big to fit free base memory" when booting from network.
We usered DOS-Bootdisks since Version 2.7a. Now we finally are sick of NIC-Driver problems. So we tried the Linuxboot.iso. Really great !
Now we would like to boot via Network. I just copied the tftpboot folder to our tftp diretory but everytime I boot I get the message: "PXE-E79: NBP is too big to fit free base memory".
I tried with differend harware....the problem is still the same.
I read under : http://www.mail-archive.com/unattended-info@lists.sourceforge.net/msg01766.html that this problem is allready solved. So i tried tuning my dhcpd.conf. Still doesn`t work.
Did I make a mistake ??

Leave the filename as pxelinux.0. You then have to download the syslinux/pxelinux packages (which would have pxelinux.0 in it) and put it in your tftp server.
In your pxelinux config file, put kernel as your 'bzImage' and initrd as 'initrd'.
