UEFI, Building .efi and menu password...

[robinsmidsrod]

The requirements for building iPXE is listed on http://ipxe.org/download and should be available on most popular Linux distros. It is also possible to build ipxe using Bash on Ubuntu on Windows (if you have Windows 10 release 1607).

The PHP stuff mentioned on the front page is just for the demo. PHP is not needed to serve ipxe boot scripts. They are just plain-text files with script commands in them (and start with #!ipxe on the first line).

If you want to use http://ipxe.org/cmd/login and provide dynamic menus based on the username/password sent to a HTTP server using basic CGI scripting. You can use PHP or any other server-side language for that.
