[gPXE] About using WinPE

I have loaded the NIC driver manually using "loaddrv" command in
WinPE, after that it showed my iscsi harddrive and I was able to
install Windows 7 easily. Now, it can boot Windows 7 with no problems.

Maybe you can also consider adding wiki that they should check if the
NIC is recognized by typing "route print" to the WinPE console. If it
does not recognize the NIC, they can load the inf drivers by using the
command "loaddrv file.inf".

Thanks for your help.
