[gPXE] Will gPXE support booting from iscsi cd-rom?

[Miller, Shao]

Good day Aldrich,

Since there's no relationship between BIOS INT 13h drive numbers and
drives that Windows finds, how do you propose to pass a virtual optical
disc drive (ODD) to Windows?

For the HDD case, we already pass an iBFT (for iSCSI) or an aBFT (for
AoE).  I would suggest that you either need additional data associated
with those tables to specify ODD as the drive-type, or your initiator
could probe the SAN and look for El Torito ISO9660 structure in order to
dynamically determine that the SAN is an ODD.

In regards to loading all of this during setup: For Windows XP/2003
you'll likely run into some challenges, as Andrew mentioned.  Have you
already found a way to use your F6-extra-drivers-floppy-disk to load
networking for the network card along with your initiator?
