[gPXE] PXE Chaining with gPXE

Hi,

   Can some one please help me to resolve the PXEChaining problem I have ?

I have written a small PXE server which will serve the boot files, I have 
modified it to serve undionly.kpxe for clients booting over PXE and serve actual 
boot file (over http) for clients booting using gPXE (based on the gPXE 
user-class option)

But this is what happens: 
 *   Target (VM) boots to PXE and gets gPXE (undionly.kpxe) image
 *   Now undionly.kpxe boots and runs the default embedded script (autoboot ?)
 *   However instead of sending another PXE boot request, all that I am seeing 
on target is: 

             Boot from PXE Menu
             No more network devices
           

I even tried to modify the default script to say:
     #!gpxe
     dhcp net0
     startpxe
     pxebs net0 0

  Now the target fails with message: 
        PXEBS (net0 type 0) Could not discover boot server on net0: Invalid 
argument (0x1c106002)

I am using gPXE 1.0.1. Can someone please help me to resolve this ? 

Thanks,
Gopi
