1. First clean Install of server 2008.
2. Download and configure the dhcp, from the link http://www.dhcpserver.de/cms/download/
In this root file column type as grldr.
Also disable any dhcp other than this.
3.Then SolarWindsTFTPServer installation
4. Then copy, ipxe.iso, grldr, menu.lst to root folder of TFTP Server.
5. Then Microsoft iSCSI Software Target Installer on server.
And mainly disable antivirus for tftp to function properly.
If all this goes well.... no problem will appear

Second method didn't work because bcd entry should exactly point to disk signature id. Its really tricky to make it work.
Try it as you near to success.

Other option is using CCBOOT Software or Isharedisk software. No depth knowledge is needed. Just installation...

Thank you for your suggestions.

Based on your post and another ipxe forum post (http://forum.ipxe.org/showthread.php?tid=7962) I was able to figure out that I was using the wrong ipxe file from rom-o-matic.eu . I was using undionly.kpxe and I should have been using ipxe.kpxe. I switched it and it is working fine now.

Thanks again!
