RE: limitations of snponly.efi
You can only boot EFI binaries in a UEFI environment, so none of the legacy BIOS systems will boot on your new UEFI system. But it is quite possible to boot Linux and other systems, as long as they are designed to work on UEFI. Using the kernel+initrd commands in iPXE should get you a long way. Just remember that PXE, bzImage and ELF binaries can't be loaded in an UEFI environment, and sanboot (ISO boot) is not yet supported on UEFI.
