UEFI USB
Hi,

Is there a way to generate a UEFI compliant USB key for iPXE ?

Thank you

RE: UEFI USB
From what I've understood of UEFI, a boot device must just use a FAT filesystem for it to be readable by the firmware. Then you can just put your ipxe EFI ROM on it. Were you thinking of something more specific?

Do you mean a UEFI-bootable USB key containing iPXE?

If so then it's not currently possible, but will be soon. (The major obstacle is fixing iPXE-as-a-UEFI-application; creating a USB key is then relatively straightforward.)

That is exactly what I mean. I then have my answer... I assume the answer is the same with undionly.kpxe (snponly.kpxe ?) with a PXE server ?

Thank you
