that's something I don't dare to delete. The PXE config files have the status
of config files and you would be very annoyed to lose them when doing an
update.

okay, that can be done.

It's the same code, only the GUI is passing a hosts list and the CLI doesn't
therefore the hosts list is unsorted in the CLI (but only if you don't pass a
hosts list). I'll sort it.

Could it be that your /etc/netbootmgr.conf has not been replaced? You might
have a .rpmnew file in /etc/... You need a line like this in the .conf file:

# status update executable
STATUS /usr/bin/netbootmgr-status
