I received the golden client image thru getimage and after that i ran mkbootserver to setup pxe and tftp servers. But i couldn't get success. I am getting 'pxelinux configuraion failed' message. Please let me know how to rectify this problem.

RedHat 7.3
Arch: i386
 
I have installed the foll. rpms on the image server.
------------------------------------------------------------------
perl-AppConfig-1.52-4.noarch.rpm
perl-MLDBM-2.01-1.noarch.rpm
perl-XML-Simple-1.08-1.noarch.rpm
