I looks like my problem for "Unable to mount the file system" was do to testing on a VM (physical servers take too long to boot).
I just needed "initrd=initrd.img" with the rest of the arguments, I now have
Code:
echo Starting ${hpsppver} HPE SPP Interactive Firmware Update
kernel http://${ipserver}/data/hp_spp/${hpsppver}/vmlinuz
initrd http://${ipserver}/data/hp_spp/${hpsppver}/initrd.img
imgargs vmlinuz initrd=initrd.img media=net rw root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=1099688 init=/bin/init loglevel=3 ide=nodma ide=noraid nopat pnpbios=off vga=791 splash=silent hp_fibre showopts noexec32=off numa=off nox2apic ipappend 2 TYPE=MANUAL AUTOPOWEROFFONSUCCESS=no AUTOREBOOTONSUCCESS=no iso1=nfs://${ipserver}/opt/planb/data/hp_spp/${hpsppver}/${hpsppiso} iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice iso1opts=timeo=120,nolock,bg,ro
boot

For Automatic/Unattended just change
"TYPE=MANUAL AUTOPOWEROFFONSUCCESS=no AUTOREBOOTONSUCCESS=no"
to
"TYPE=AUTOMATIC AUTOPOWEROFFONSUCCESS=no AUTOREBOOTONSUCCESS=yes"

I am also using the hotfix for 2016.10

Thank you, I understand a little more about how iPXE works.
