[gPXE-devel] gPXE Feature Request: assigning custom commands toexecute batch files

[Tal Aloni]

Hello again,
I was trying the alternative Shao suggested, it seems that there is no way
to load and execute an embedded image with a single command. (I have to use
imgload and then boot).

(my goal is to boot one of many predefined OSes with a single and short
command line)

I think that it would be useful to modify the chain command to allow it to
be used on embedded images as well. (today the command tries to fetch the
image first, so it fails on embedded images, after my patch, it first checks
for an embedded image with the same name)

I wrote a small patch with the necessary modifications:
http://iknowu.net/files/public/gPXE/DoNotFetchWhenChainingEmbeddedImage.patch

I also updated my previous patches (UI enhancement and bugfix,
respectively):
http://iknowu.net/files/public/gPXE/SetVariablesBeforeShell_v2.patch
http://iknowu.net/files/public/gPXE/MultiwordSettings_v2.patch

Thanks again for your time,
Tal
