multiple initrd/imgfetch in UEFI mode

Code:

#!ipxe
  kernel http://my.web.server/boot/vmlinuz initrd=initrd.img
  initrd http://my.web.server/boot/initrd.img
  initrd http://my.web.server/boot/test.txt /tmp/test.txt
  boot

The file test.txt is correctly loaded (I have done an imgstat after the load) but can not be found under /tmp (neither anywhere) during the initrd phase. It works fine in legacy mode ...

Any advices?

Note: It took me time to find that the kernel option initrd=<file> is compulsory in UEFI mode (not in legacy)

Not yet supported under UEFI, sorry. You can provide multiple initramfs CPIO archives via (from memory) multiple initrd= arguments on the kernel command line, but there's no capability to have iPXE automatically construct the CPIO headers for you (as is done under BIOS).
