Hi Marek,

I don't think it will boot from iSCSI target.
The tutorial you were following says about (...I have dedicated my
time to figuring out a way to mount iSCSI targets under our custom
WinPE v3.0 (Windows 7 Based) environment...) but not to boot from
iSCSI target.

Maybe I miss a point...

Regards,
Slawek
