Scripts terminate when any command fails.  In your case, at least one of 
the "iseq" commands will (by definition) always fail, causing the script 
to terminate.  You need to use the "||" operator to prevent this from 
happening:

   iseq ${smbios/product} ${VMWARET} && set vmware 1 ||
   iseq ${smbios/product} ${VBOXT} && set vbox 1 ||

I've updated http://ipxe.org/46022001 to include a note explaining this.
