I am trying to build an EFI version of iPXE for distribution to Apple laptops, so I may chainload PXE.
The command I am using is
Code:
make bin-x86_64-efi/ipxe.efi
. The build, after some time, halts with an error:

The curious thing about this is that I can compile iPXE as an ISO completely fine, however the exact same code will not build as an EFI. The only change being that I have defined PXE_STACK in config/general.h
Code:
/*
* PXE support
*
*/
#define PXE_STACK /* PXE stack in iPXE - you want this! */
//#undef PXE_MENU /* PXE menu booting */
I am compiling the code against the current git master branch. Using gcc:
Code:
gcc (Ubuntu 5.2.1-22ubuntu2) 5.2.1 20151010
And on Ubuntu 15.10.
