gPXE and iPXE not working #9

I am trying to test openthinclient with VMs in virtual box and citrix XEN server. Even though both variants will receive an IP address through DHCP, they never show up as PXE clients in the management window. It is also not possible to add them manually and performa pxe boot. After some analysis and 3 or 4 different DHCP servers, I always end up with the same problem: No filename or root path specified. I user wireshark to analyse the DHCP requests, it shows up an error in User option 77 . That's all I could find out so far. I am using the virtual appliance, Minerva, downloaded freshly 5 days ago. Does anyone has any suggestions?

Hi, I also have similar issue. I test it on a Hyper-V and my problem was could not mount 192.168.102.71:/openthinclient - existing. I have a Server 2008 R2 dhcp server.
