(Copy for the list, so I don't have to repeat myself again)

This is basically the core of my ipxe boot script:

set root-path
iscsi:nas.smidsrod.lan::::iqn.2011-02.lan.smidsrod:${hostname}.boot.windows7
sanhook ${root-path}
chain tftp://${next-server}/%5CBoot%5CPXE%5Cpxeboot.n12

Make sure you are using a tftp server which supports the backslash hack
(tftpd-hpa does this). Make sure you enable said hack. This is the
contents of my relevant files for this (using ubuntu 10.04 which has
this hack/workaround available):

$ cat /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
# /etc/default/tftpd-hpa

TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
TFTP_DIRECTORY="/srv/tftp"
TFTP_ADDRESS="0.0.0.0:69"
TFTP_OPTIONS="-s -v -m /etc/tftpd.map"

$ cat /etc/tftpd.map
# Convert backslashes to slashes
rg \\ /
# Ensure /Boot is always mapped to uppercase
rg /boot/boot.sdi /Boot/boot.sdi

This document was very helpful:

These are the files on my TFTP server. They all come from either the
Windows 7 DVD or from processes made by following the document above.
Make sure case matches, or else you'll get in trouble, or use a
Windows-based TFTP server which doesn't care about case-sensitivity.
They are probably not all required, but hopefully you'll get a better
idea of what's involved.
