I have been testing 2.4.0 from epel-testing.  So far, I have been successful in 
PXE booting Ubuntu-12.04.1-server, 64bit. Since I am off today, so this 
afternoon I decided to try to PXE boot Ubuntu 12.10 desktop.

Setting up cobbler as usual, watching the initrd.gz and linux file retrieved 
successfully.  Now, upon Download installer component, I got a window that 
displays:

"The installer failed to download a file from the mirror. This may be a problem 
with your network, or with the mirror.  You can choose to retry the download, 
select a different mirror, or cancel and choose another installation method.

Downloading a file failed:
                            Retry
                            Change mirror
                            Cancel

Alt-F4 into the logging vt, I saw (manually transcribed):

I double checked the cobbler server's Apache access_log and error_log, no clues 
so far.  Would appreciate a hint or two as to how to go from here.
