Hi,

it looks like the largest initrd qemu can pass/pxe can load from the
qemu's TFTP server is 33553920 bytes long. If a larger file is passed,
the laoding in pxelinux hangs (stops printing dots). It seems that qemu
supports tsize, but now it looks like it does not work well?

The command-line I use:
qemu-kvm -k en-us -usbdevice tablet -balloon virtio -hda
/win/vm/suse-stable.img -smp 2 -m 1000M -net
user,tftp=tftp,bootfile=/pxelinux.0 -net nic,model=e1000 -usb

Any ideas?

thanks,
