I managed to get centos booting by adding the squash image directly to my ipxe config.
Seems like in BIOS mode this file can be retrieved autimatically by the system, but not in UEFI mode.

This squashfs image is located here by example: http://mirror.centos.org/centos-7/7/os/x86_64/LiveOS/

:centos-install-7
echo Starting CentOS 7 ${archl} installer
set base-url ${boot-url}/unattended/centos
kernel ${base-url}/centos7_${archl}.kernel initrd=centos7_${archl}.initrd inst.repo=http://${128.1:string}/centos/7/os/x86_64
initrd ${base-url}/centos7_${archl}.initrd
initrd ${base-url}/centos7_${archl}.squash
boot || goto failed
goto start

Worked for me. Thanks a lot.
