DL580 G7 can't PXE boot 64bit Linux OS

Howdy,

I can't seem to PXE boot RHEL 5.5 x86_64, RHEL 5.4 x86_64, CentOS 5.3 x86_64 on a DL580 G7. The server just reboots itself after it loads the initrd.img file. Just prints out "Kernel Alive" at the bottom of the screen and reboots.

Doesn't have this issue for i386 PXE booting or physical booting of x86_64 media ..

Anyone else seen this?
