[gPXE] Help with use-cached

[Rob Shelley]

I just downloaded the default kkpxe image from
http://rom-o-matic.net/gpxe/gpxe-1.0.1/contrib/rom-o-matic/.  I set my
PXE environment to boot this file.  When gPXE comes up, I hit CTRL+B to
get to a command line.  Here's my problem:

 

gPXE> set use-cached 1

gPXE> dhcp net0

DHCP (net0 <my MAC>) using cached

gPXE> show ip

Could not find "ip": File not found (0x2d0c203b)

 

This also holds true for all other identifiers.  But, if I "clear
use-cached" and reissue "dhcp net0", or if I reboot and skip "set
use-cached 1" everything works as expected.  I've tried this on an older
system (Asus P4C800-E), and a VMWare VM with identical results.  I also
tried a customized image with no change in result.  Am I missing
something, or is the current gPXE build broken?

 

Any help is appreciated.
