iPXE EFI with F12 prompt does not work
iPXE EFI with F12 prompt does not work with custom built boot loader. It does work with bios boot loader.

Here is my script
#!ipxe
prompt --key 0x197e --timeout 4000 Press F12 for network boot... || goto no_shell
dhcp
login
chain http://${username:uristring}:${p.../menu.ipxe
exit

:no_shell
exit

What do you mean by "does not work"?

When I hit the F12 key it just exits the script.

It looks as though the function key definitions are missing from the ansi_sequences[] table in interface/efi/efi_console.c. You could try adding the relevant definitions there.

If you get it working, please send a patch to ipxe-devel@lists.ipxe.org.

Thanks,

Michael

I'm a ipxe newbie, but if you point me in the right direction I'll have try at it.

It's a small change. Already done!
