-I am taking similar approach as I took for TFTP for which QEMU + PXE Knife combination is working if I use qemu TFTP stack. +Note : use latest version of Pxelinux to work over HTTP, for me version 3.80 worked.
-Here are the things that are working ​for me. +
-<​code>​ +
-qemu -net nic -net user -fda ./gpxe.dsk -bootp /pxelinux.0 -tftp /​home/​myname/​for_pxe_knife/​ +

-qemu -fda gpxe.dsk -net nic -net user -bootp http://​10.0.0.2/​gpxe/​gtest.gpxe +
-</​code>​ +
-boots gtest.gpxe which is copy of [[http://​etherboot.org/​gtest/​gtest.gpxe]].\\+
