[gPXE] Problem Invoking gpxe from syslinux

Hello,

 

I'm having a problem booting gpxe from syslinux.   Whether I compile
gpxe.lkrn myself or from the rom-o-matic it doesn't seem to posses any
NIC drivers.   Here's how I'm calling it:

 

LABEL fog.quickimage

kernel gpxe.lkrn

It loads successfully but then gives the error "no more network
devices."    When I do a ifstat on the gpxe command line it lists
nothing or if I type  interface net0 it says it doesn't exist.   I can
boot the same computer from a gpxe.iso and it brings up the interface
successfully.   So the drivers do exist for this NIC but they just
aren't present for some reason in the syslinux gpxe kernel.  Is there a
way to get them in there?  

Thank you,

Ben
