Good day Milton,

Please try another floppy disk.  Floppies are often aged. :)

Subject: [gPXE] gPXE floppy disk not boot

I downloaded and burning gPXE1.0.1 and 1.0.1 images into some floppy disks
but i can not boot any computer.  I use the following comands:

$ cat gPXE-1.0.0.dsk > /dev/fd0     and too
$ dd if=gPXE-1.0.0.dsk of=/dev/fd0

On virtual box the .dsk images work well but on 
real machines not boot the floppies and show :

AX:004 BX: 005. CX:789 DX: .666
AX:...  BX: ... CX:....... DX: .......
AX:... BX: ... CX:....... DX: .......
AX:... BX: ... CX:....... DX: .......
.....
....
