CentOS 8.2 Corrupt Pxeboot Kernel
Attempting to PXE boot from the BaseOS/x86_64/kickstart/images/pxeboot/ files results in repeating messages
Invalid or corrupt kernel image
eventually changing to
Could not find kernel image: CentOS8.2.x86_64/vmlinuz
I downloaded the files again, from a different mirror, and they are all the same. Wiped the files and recreated /tftpboot/linux-install/CentOS8.2.x86_64/. No dice.

pxe is working for me in this test virtualbox build.
$ md5sum initrd.img vmlinuz

And it is working here now, too. After replacing the trusty, 8-year old pxelinux.0 with a slightly newer version. Strange that it should break just after C8.1.
