[ipxe-devel] help: sanboot from AoE target not working

[Robin Smidsrød]

sanboot is not yet supported on EFI platforms. We do not have an ETA on
when it will be available. If you have commercial interest in the
feature you could fund the development, if not, and you don't have C
bare-metal programming skills then your only option is to have some
patience.
