Hey guys this will be quick,

I have Serva PXE boot setup with a Hiren's ISO on it, a Virtual Machine will boot to this ISO with 110% success. However, my physical machine's will not boot to it. I get an "Image appears to be truncated" and "Image seems to be using fractional end cylinder" type errors.

here is a screenshot of my config file for the ISO boot in Serva's Root Directory:

Thanks for the time guys,

It says in the config that the mem needs to be 2.2 the iso size...
What does serva boot into? If it's dos it can't see that much ram and in linux it needs some special commands to pull it off.
Also are you burning this thing to CD/DVD or are you using a USB stick?

Are you sure your physical machine has enough memory?
is your network reliable for this ""long"" TFTP transfer?
