If you've rebuilt pxeboot, you can use one of the intermediate files to 
track down the actual location in pxeboot where the trap is occurring.

Given that cs is 0x002b, I think you're in pxeboot itself and not off in 
the BIOS.  So track down the loader.sym file and try:

nm --numeric-sort loader.sym

and look for the function that contains 0x0001af8b.  This should help 
narrow things down a bit.
