[ipxe-devel] building for use virtualbox

[Warren Turkal]

Ok, here's a question about that config. I undef PXE_MENU in the config,
but I still get menus in iPXE. However, if I let it remain defined (i.e.
comment out the #undef), the binary's size increases. What is undefing
PXE_MENU actually disabling?

Thanks,
wt
