[ipxe-devel] adding command line function to ipxe - extend ipxe

[Levy, O]

Thanks for your reply. I have to be able to install android(x86) directly from ipxe and I'm not sure how; any thoughts?
I thought if I add "install" command to ipxe then I can load the image, then its installer.

Why would you need to extend iPXE to boot Android? Isn't Android started by booting a Linux kernel? If so, I don't see why Android couldn't be booted in the same way as any other Linux OS.

Could you please describe a bit more in detail how you're planning to boot Android over the network? I'm personally interested in being able to boot Android over the network on x86.

Or are you trying to boot an ARM device over the network?
