your single iBFT includes details for both NICs.  I do not believe that
gPXE currently supports multiple NICs in the iBFT that it builds, but I
do believe that it would be possible to code...  What might be required
is some discussion concerning how to modify the 'sanboot' command or the
DHCP root-path settings passed by a DHCP service; what those might look
like.

In your Intel iSCSI ROM configuration setup, I believe that you set
parameters manually and statically, versus using anything passed by
DHCP, is that correct?

I've also read sentiment once before in a gPXE or Etherboot mailing-list
and once in another forum (the Boot-Land forum) regarding further
control over the iBFT in order to support interesting SAN-boot
scenarios...  So you're not alone in this desire.  I cannot honestly
suggest that I can tackle this for you at this time, even though it
seems like an interesting and useful feature.  How about any other gPXE
user/developer/network-booting-enthusiast-with-some-C out there? :)  I
have a bit of a ToDo at the moment, but this sure seems worth having!
