[OpenBSD] compilation error: net/80211/wpa.c:424: warning: format '%d' expects type ' - jirib - 2013-11-28 23:29

Hi,

I want to build iPXE from source because I want to then embed a script. But building fails...

It seems like some definitions in a core header file has an unexpected value. You might get better support from the mailing-list about this. To my knowledge, most of the BSD platforms should be able to compile iPXE straight out of the box. Please report back what you figure out, in case someone else comes looking.
