On the subject of gPXE has anybody else found that it doesn't seem to be
working at all?
I'm using the virt-preview packages on F11 and ever since qemu switched
to use gPXE network booting has been completely broken. I get the gPXE
banner message appear and then nothing happens. Monitoring the network
shows no signs of any DHCP requests being sent at all.
It's probably this:

It's fixed in the F-12 kernel, but we need that fix backported to F-11.
Cheers,
Mark.
