Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netbootxyz/netboot.xyz/issues/1678

[]: This bug persists when memory is increased beyond 8GB.

Describe the bug

netboot freezes after a random amount of seconds in the menu, the numlock and capslock keys do not toggle switches, the count down timer does not keep counting down, but if it freezes early while configuring or recieving files, it does keep flashing the cursor. Using the CD image instead of the built in image does not help

My guess is it's a hardware thing, I'd test with just an iPXE build as netboot.xyz is mainly just scripting the menus.
