The "bfo.lkrn" file is actually a build of gPXE/iPXE with an embedded 
script.  If you already have iPXE running, then you should just boot the 
Fedora installer kernel/initrd directly.  For example:

:fedora-instbfo
echo Install Fedora from BFO
dhcp net0
set os 
http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/20/Fedora/x86_64/os
kernel ${os}/images/pxeboot/vmlinux repo=${os}
initrd ${os}/images/pxeboot/initrd.img
boot
