Hi,

once again I have installed my system new and I have again the problem that 
memdisk doesnt load when a PXE client starts to boot.

Again the message:

Loading unattended/memdisk...........
Loading unattended/fetnd.imz...........(This image works with this network 
card)
Ready.

But memdisk doesnt start !!!!!


Because I am very very confused about it I give you for tonight and tomorrow 
root access to my server.

I hope somebody could tell me where the problem is. I have the memdisk and 
pxelinux.0 file from the unattended-4.8 packet of unattended.sourceforge.net

ROOT ACCESS TO MY SERVER:

Go to your console and type:

telnet pxeshit.dyndns.org

User: guest
pass: test

Type two times cd.. and you are in the root folder (hopefully  somebody 
finds the problem)

and FTP Access:

Go to your console and type:

ftp pxeshit.dyndns.org

User: guest
Pass: test

Thanks in advance
