[ipxe-devel] wimboot: regression between 2.1.0 and 2.2.0

[Christian Nilsson]

Hi
git bisect as Shao mentioned, is the best wayt to find out what actually
caused this change.

Everything seems right and things should be working, the only thing that
could be changed is remove the initrd bootmgr.exe line (since it is
extracted from boot.wim by wimboot)

When you start testing efi remember to add -n filename in the begining of
the line to set the uefi filename. as well (is needed on your boot.wim line)
