Hi,

Having done `make bin/ipxe.usb` and copying that to an
USB-memory-device, I had NOT a bootable  iPXE.

While researching what went wrong, I saw an unexpected partion type:

  Be OS

|$ sudo fdisk -l bin/ipxe.usb
|Disk bin/ipxe.usb: 368 KiB, 376832 bytes, 736 sectors
|Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
|Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
|I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
|Disklabel type: dos
|Disk identifier: 0x00000000
|
|Device        Boot Start   End Sectors Size Id Type
|bin/ipxe.usb4 *       32  4095    4064   2M eb BeOS fs
|$


By whom is that reproducable?

On a known working "bin/ipxe.usb", which partition type has it?
