[ipxe-devel] UEFI iPXE / Embedded iPXE

[Thomas Mieslinger]

If I was a HPE customer I wouldn't want to chainload ipxe from ipxe.

Instead I would look for a method to transfer the chain url to the
currently executing iPXE. I think it is possible to send the url to
chain load with the DHCPACK

Cheers Thomas
