I had the same issue. After instaling syslinux on the tftp server and after configuring pxelinux (which is part of syslinux I had the pleasure to see the the ethernet card running pxelinux and then begin to try to download a kernel. Unfortunatly I can't go further : I begin to believe that I jumped over important steps, like understanding what should reside in a rescue floppy, or how to play with linux boot options :) I'm happy to know that I'm not alone ;)) Viel SpaB, Bernhard.
