Netboot and iPXE

RE: Netboot and iPXE
Hey guys, just to contribute and if anyone else is working on this again, this is the last NBImageInfo.plist file I was working with at the time and was able to get a grub efi loading, but not the iPXE efi.

If you're not familiar with basic Netboot basically got to:
\Library\Netboot\NetbootSP0
Create an iPXE.nbi folder (or other preferred name)
Create a file named NBImageInfo.plist containing the following:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>Architectures</key>
    <array>
        <string>i386</string>
    </array>
    <key>BackwardCompatible</key>
    <false/>
    <key>BootFile</key>
    <string>grub.efi</string>
    <key>Description</key>
    <string>iPXE BootStrap</string>
    <key>DisabledSystemIdentifiers</key>
    <array/>
    <key>EnabledSystemIdentifiers</key>
    <array/>
    <key>Index</key>
    <integer>403</integer>
    <key>IsDefault</key>
    <false/>
    <key>IsEnabled</key>
    <false/>
    <key>IsInstall</key>
    <false/>
    <key>Kind</key>
    <integer>1</integer>
    <key>Language</key>
    <string>Default</string>
    <key>Name</key>
    <string>iPXE Bootstrap</string>
    <key>SupportsDiskless</key>
    <false/>
    <key>Type</key>
    <string>BootFileOnly</string>
</dict>
</plist>

Create an i386 folder INSIDE your iPXE.nbi folder
Place grub.efi or other file you're trying to boot inside the i386 folder. Update filename from above as appropriate depending on what you're trying to load.

Jp.
