Code:

PCI_ROM ( 0x8086, 0x1559, "i218v", "I218-V", INTEL_NO_PHY_RST ),

I tried it but with the patch dhcp times out also from cold boot!

But this was the first time I have compiled iPXE myself. So I might have missed something on the way...

What I did is:
1. Download source from git
2. Install the required tool on my machine (Kubuntu 15.10)
3. Applied the patch
4. run

Code:

make bin/ipxe.lkrn

It executed with no errors and filled the bin directory with 769 files plus a folder. Among them was ipxe.lkrn which I then copied to the target machine.
