[gPXE] gPXE 1.0.0-rc1 - Input/output error

[Paul Geraedts]

Hi Neil,

Your're right: this website is a bit outdated. It seems that all gPXE
versions other then a specific v0.9.7 are considered 'too old'. That
shouldn't be a problem though: in that case they first chainload
v0.9.7 before the menu.

Anyhow, it still strikes me as odd that only this latest version of
gPXE gives this error. I mean, does it only concern this specific
website or does this error reveal a gPXE v1.0.0 related bug?

(So basically is it a bug or feature.. : )

Paul
