OpenThinClient Vitrual appliance: Nothing to boot: No such file or directory

- Downloaded OpenThinClient for VM and configured in VirtualBox.
- Logged in to OpenThinClient Debian and opened ThinClient manager.
- Created VM without HDD and made bootable from NetCard. Then started up.
- After DHCP IP retrieval, I added PXE client from OpenThinClient Manager.
- When I rebooted client VM,
I got this error:
Nothing to boot: No such file or directory (http://ipxe.org/2d03e13b) 
No more network devices
FATAL: Could not read from the boot medium! System halted.

They said it is a known bug for VirtualBox and solution would be:

Change the Network >> Adapter Type from “Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop” to “PCnet-FAST III” from VM Settings.

But, this didn't work for me.
I rebooted VM client and pressed Ctrl+B when prompted to do so.
dhcp 
then chained it manually
chain tftp://192.168.1.15/pxelinux.0

It is trying to boot but fails at the end anyway.
