detection of virtual hypervisor on ipxe boot - kl3eo - 2019-10-21 09:25

Hi all, is there a way to detect hypervisor CPU flag from inside an ipxe binary, just like the 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' does after the OS is up and running. We need to detect on the run if the ipxe is being used from hypervisor to launch a virtual. Thanks.
