Hi, i'm starting some experiment with ipxe, i just copied menu.ipxe and bootstrap.ipxe to see how it's work, i'm playing with tftp instead of http.
One question, sanboot command can play with tftp? or it support only http?

sanboot supports iSCSI, AoE, FCoE, SRP, and HTTP.

TFTP provides no mechanism for reading only part of a file, and so can not support SAN booting.
