I'm trying to boot into dos over pxe with a diskimage for storage. I've created a disk image, and installed grub to the disk image. Now I want to use syslinux's memdisk binary to boot to a dos floppy.
All over the internet it is shown in the following way: kernel /memdisk initrd /dosfloppyimage.img boot
This works as expected if you install grub to a disk, but not when you install grub to an image. I can boot the image, it starts loading first the image and then grub.
Then you'll get the grub prompt and it works as expected. Only when you specify "kernel /memdisk" it returns "[Linux-bzImage, setup=0x600, size=0x5afc]" but you don't get the grub prompt back and it gets stuck...
I believe it has something to do with the memory mapping or something...
