Well, it's a regression _of_sorts_. :)  It turns out that I'd only ever 
gotten undionly.kkpxe to work in testing with a tiny change to gPXE.  
That change is incompatible with a certain change that was committed 
some time ago, now.

Could you please temporarily change your ldms-dos label entry to:

LABEL ldms-dos
  MENU LABEL Managed DOS
  MENU INDENT 1
  KERNEL ldms-dos.gpxe

and plop the following ldms-dos.gpxe script into the same directory as 
menu.cfg that goes:

#!gpxe
kernel memdisk floppy
initrd ldms/x86pc/undi/dosundi/dosundi.1
ifclose net0
boot memdisk

and remove any sign of any 'startpxe' command that you have, and use the 
undionly.kkpxe from here[1].

If you could please confirm that this works, that would be great.  Thanks.
