Computer reboots after loading boot.wim

Computer reboots after loading boot.wim
I am chainloading iPXE then using wimboot to boot to WinPE. However, when booting up, the computer reboots after loading boot.wim. Has anyone experienced this before?

The code for boot.ipxe is the following:
Code:
#!ipxe
  
  kernel wimboot
  initrd boot/bcd         BCD
  initrd boot/boot.sdi    boot.sdi
  initrd sources/boot.wim boot.wim
boot

A link to a snapshot of the boot sequence is below

It reboots right after this.

RE: Computer reboots after loading boot.wim
After testing this I can say that the wimboot file is somehow corrupt. Replacing with https://git.ipxe.org/wimboot.git/blame/e...1:/wimboot
And no reboot, However there is some issue with the BCD, switching that to https://github.com/NiKiZe/wimboot-bcd/bl...gen/PXEBCD and it boots into the win7 boot.wim without any issues in my tests.

do note that I have no -n in boot.wim in the scripts I tested with.

Will help you further with this on IRC
