undionly ISO - bishop - 2019-01-21 18:00

Hi

Is it possible to create an ISO file with just the undi\undionly driver ? I have run the command

Code:
make bin/undionly.iso

It creates a file, but it is never able to initialize a network card. I have tried on multiple systems with known working network cards.

This is using the most recent ipxe build.

What would you use that for?

The pcbios UNDI driver can only be used if it has a UNDI driver to bind to - which means it have to be initialized from an existing PXE stack, via the .kpxe codepath.
.pxe will not work since that unloads the existing pxe stack before starting.

As you can see from this undionly, only makes sense in a kpxe context.

I was trying it because I I have run out of options.

I tried the kpxe route but it is not booting. not sure why as I don't have control to see the setup
