iPXE on floppy - ivacau - 2011-04-13 03:20

Is it possible to create an iPXE image on floppy? If so could someone list the steps?

This was possible with gPXE, where an image could be downloaded and created directly to disk.

1. Download iPXE source:

Code:
git clone git://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git

2. Change directory to src:

Code:
cd ipxe/src

3. Build images

Code:
make

The floppy image is in ipxe/bin. Alternatively,

Code:
make bin/ipxe.dsk

Enjoy!
