RE: Optimization gPXE/iPXE rom for better CBROM compression
Gelip: Look in CONFIG=vbox (src/config/vbox) in the source tree for how you can disable various features to get below 56KB). You'll probably need to have a sophisticated isc dhcpd setup to be able to "upgrade" your ROM ipxe to a fully-featured chainloaded ipxe.pxe/undionly.kpxe. See https://gist.github.com/robinsmidsrod/4008017 for details on the isc-dhcpd setup. Lines 10-20 has the logic for which features your ipxe binary must have to not be "upgraded" again. This must match your compiled chainloaded ipxe.pxe/undionly.kpxe binary feature set.
