Hi,
We are currently testing PXE booting with syslinux.efi in UEFI mode.
This is working fine.
However the loading of syslinux.efi and the config files is still using
TFTP protocol, the rest kernel and initrd is loaded using HTTP protocol.
We would like to use only HTTP protocol.
In UEFI it is possible to use HTTP boot instead off PXE boot.
Questions:
1. If we load syslinux.efi with HTTP will this work ?
2. If we load syslinux.efi with HTTP, will syslinux then load it config
files with HTTP or TFTP ?
3. In UEFI 2.8 it is possible to provide the next server manually (not
using DHCP).
Will syslinux work with HTTP boot and a manually provided next
server (no DHCP data) ?
Best regards,
Jean-Paul Smeets
