Thanks for the reply!
I guess the default value for use-cached was changed at some point?
I found many docs indicating the default value is 0 ..
Those seemed to be old info..

This was the trick. I specified "pxelinux.pathprefix" and
now gPXE loads "pxelinux.cfg/<mac-address>" cfgfiles over http!

I guess things have changed.. pretty much every tutorial/example
I could find said I need to use "bus-id" check to configure
gpxelinux specific settings..
Oh well :)
Thanks again for the quick reply. This is the dhcpd.conf I'm using now:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

next-server 10.0.0.1;
site-option-space "pxelinux";
option pxelinux.magic f1:00:74:7e;
if exists dhcp-parameter-request-list {
# Always send the PXELINUX options (specified in hexadecimal)
option dhcp-parameter-request-list = concat(option
dhcp-parameter-request-list,d0,d1,d2,d3);
}
option pxelinux.pathprefix "http://10.0.0.1/gpxe/";;
