How to create Bootmenu - mirandaveracruz - 2015-03-13 12:25

Hey ipxe-community,

I'm totally new to ipxe - so please excuse...

My environment:
DHCP and WDS running on Windows Server 2012 R2. Also the same machine is a webserver (Microsoft IIS 8 with PHP-extension)

My target-szenario:
Machines should boot via ipxe into a custom boot-menu where I can choose:

- to boot into WDS (Windows Deployment Services)
- to boot into another PXE-environment
- to boot into a wiping-solution

What have I done until now?
I followed the howto on ipxe.org (How to use the Microsoft DHCP server with iPXE) to modify the DHCP to handout the unidonly.kkpxe-File -> working fine. I see the machine is booting into ipxe and I see the ipxe-cmd-prompt. But what do I have to do now to get my custom boot-screen working?

Regards
Miranda
