Apologies Geert: you're correct:

Step 9/10 : RUN file bin/ipxe.usb && fdisk -l bin/ipxe.usb
 ---> Running in 822f0cd9d87a
bin/ipxe.usb: DOS/MBR boot sector; partition 4 : ID=0xeb, active, start-CHS (0x0,1,1), end-CHS (0x1,63,32), startsector 32, 4064 sectors
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
Removing intermediate container 822f0cd9d87a

However, I can boot this in qemu just fine (I don't have a real system to easily test this on right now)
