it shoes something like booting windows 7 instead.

That's not an error. It's a side effect of the workaround that wimboot applies for the bug in Windows 8 (and Windows Server 2012) to ensure that error messages can be displayed without having to guess the correct set of font files.

You can disable this workaround (which will result in your seeing the normal Windows 8 logo) by adding the "gui" parameter to the wimboot command line; see http://ipxe.org/wimboot#displaying_graph...t_messages.
