iPXE ESXi 6.0u2 on UEFI -> PSOD

RE: iPXE ESXi 6.0u2 on UEFI -> PSOD
This is just guesses since I have not tested Vmware at all.
The server sends .gz files with a header that the client (iPXE) decompresses and that throws the loader of (this does not happen with tftp) to test this check headers with packetdumps, change filename of *gz files, or change the http server config.

One other thing that is worth knowing about iPXE is that iPXE does not do any decompression of compressed files before sending them to the kernel (it does if the http server sends headers telling it to decompress but that is before the files are sent on to the kernel) however since it works with tftp we can also rule this out.

Have anyone tested with nfs to see if it works?
