Odd behavior running under Parallels

[kpatel]

I am actually seeing the same issue with Parallels as well. One thing of interest, though, is that the same iPXE ISO used in attempt to build on Parallels works perfectly fine to build a guest on ESXi (they both are using same driver, which is 82545em.

The other strange thing is that when a real tftp server is answering the DHCP call generated by Parallels, it fully work without any problem and download completely. It only fails when using the ISO at random points in the download of linux kernel or when chaining a boot sequence to another ipxe loader.
