Hello Dean,

We are also writing to a mailinglist. Hi everbody.

That is output during _build_   the request is _debug_ output.

So rerun  ipxe with the ipxe.efi that was build with

    make bin-x86_64-efi/ipxe.efi DEBUG=nii:3

and capture the output. It should help with solving the original problem
of NIC not being detected.  Bonus points for replying below the text.
