boot into efi-shell

[Factionite]

Having some problems trying to get ipxe boot an efi shell that would then run automated scripts from the startup.nsh file. However, I'm a little unsure about how to do this. Should this be treated as an ISO, should i zip it, or pass over the files individually? I'm a little unsure about what the capabilities are here in regards to running efi shell scripts.

When you run ipxe.efi or snponly.efi (or other ipxe.efi variant) then you can only boot .efi binaries for the current arch. so normally it would be something like

Code:

chain http://server/path/shellx64.efi
