====== Get PXE Knife working with QEMU over HTTP ======

I am taking similar approach as I took for TFTP for which QEMU + PXE Knife combination is working if I use qemu TFTP stack.
Here are the things that are working for me.
<code>
qemu -net nic -net user -fda ./gpxe.dsk -bootp /pxelinux.0 -tftp /home/myname/for_pxe_knife/
</code>
which boots pxe-knife over tftp and 
<code>
qemu -fda gpxe.dsk -net nic -net user -bootp http://10.0.0.2/gpxe/gtest.gpxe
</code>
boots gtest.gpxe which is copy of [[http://etherboot.org/gtest/gtest.gpxe]].\\

But when I try and use HTTP with qemu over pxe_knife which is based on __pxelinux__,
it does not work.
<code> 
qemu -fda gpxe.dsk -net nic -net user -bootp http://10.0.0.2/pxeknife/pxelinux.0
</code>
It is getting stuck in same way as QEMU + PXELinux + TFTP combination is getting stuck.
It loads pxelinux.0 successfully, but fails in loading //pxeknife/default// file with error 
<code>

Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/default
Unable to locate configuration file
</code>
