The target iqn and IP port number are changed in the ipxe config and from what I can tell, the system boots as expected... then when ipxe hands the iscsi session off to the OS, it loses the connection and the OS crashes.

My guess is that the handoff isn't passing the new port number and iqn.

I'm using fedora 23. I can't see where the OS stores the iscsi configuration. All those files are empty... probably because it inherits it from ipxe.

Fedora has the option to either use hardcoded iSCSI target information (recorded at the time that you performed the installation), or to pick up the iSCSI target information dynamically from the iBFT created by iPXE. I don't know the precise configuration change you need, but searching for "Fedora iSCSI iBFT" should get you some answers.
