Hi. I'm using pxeboot to boot up an old box which is unable to boot from it's own disks (for several uninteresting reasons). I'm booting it from the TFTP. Everything is working as expected, except one thing: before the kernel pxeboot tries to load up the /boot/boot.4th file and the /boot/boot.4th.gz. While doing this, it ignores the messages from the tftpd that there's no such file. If I create this (or these) file it requests them both several times in cycle (requesting, but not trying to read). After this everything boots up as usual. How can I get rid off this boot.4th requests ? Thanks. Eugene.
