I tried to build with commit 5d3d62d source but it fails. Master allows me to build but the rom is too big. 68,6kb.

How do I specify which features to build?

You can look at the named config "vbox" which is quite minimal, see http://ipxe.org/appnote/named_config for what that is.

Also worth double checking that the NIC actually has it's own ROM, if it is an on board it's unlikely usable. (worth mentioning since it is missed by many trying to burn ROMs) Also the forum FAQ are good to read!
