I was not talking about the pxe config files, just the "extra" files
which you provide, like "memtest86+-1.65.bin".  However, perhaps you
have already taken care of this for future upgrades (when I upgraded
from the old version, /tftpboot had a bunch of extra files floating
around).

This is what my /etc/netbootmgr.conf says:

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

When I run netbootmgr-status nothing happens.  If I pass a hostname as
argument, the hostname is displayed but nothing else.
