Hi,

If I manually install ESXi on my hardware and then create an ESXi VM inside 
(ESXi on ESXi), then try build from Cobbler with gPXE, it works !!!

So gPXE/ESXi 5 - OK
So gPXE/ESXi 5 - Not OK
So gPXE/ESXi 5/ESXi 5 - OK

So it must be some kind of hardware issue, some strange interaction between 
gPXE and ESXi on that hardware ?

Maybe I need to put this to the gPXE people ?

John

Weird, there is a single google result for that error message:

http://communities.vmware.com/thread/329291

I've gpxe'd on a VM with only 1GB, so I'm not sure what you're running into. 
Maybe a network card issue? Does it fail when loading the s.v00 file like in 
that forum post?
