[gPXE] About using WinPE

[Ozan Yerli]

Thanks for the nice explanation.

I have another question. In the wiki page:
http://etherboot.org/wiki/winpe it says in order to load the files
from the TFTP server add the following option to the DHCP server:
filename "\\Boot\\pxeboot.n12";

But this does not contain any server ip. How will the gPXE know the
address of the TFTP server? Do I also need to add another command to
give the TFTP server?
