Bootstrapping full iPXE native menu with customizable default option with timeout (also includes working Ubuntu 12.04 preseed install)
Raw
_INSTALL.md

Add the following chunk to your existing ISC dhcpd.conf file.

if exists user-class and ( option user-class = "iPXE" ) {
    filename "http://boot.smidsrod.lan/boot.ipxe";
}
else {
    filename "undionly.kpxe";
}

(or see https://gist.github.com/4008017 for a more elaborate setup that chainloads a more featureful version of iPXE from a stripped-down version burned in ROM)

Put undionly.kpxe (or ipxe.pxe) at the root of your TFTP server.

Change boot-url (and sanboot-url and other values) in boot.ipxe.cfg to match your setup.

Put the following files in your web root:

  • boot.ipxe
  • boot.ipxe.cfg
  • menu.ipxe

Add a folder named boot in your web root and put any of these files there:

  • hostname-testvm.ipxe
  • mac-0050dadd426f.ipxe
  • uuid-f84a339b-9e36-456e-8ccf-4c51ea6cb42d.ipxe
  • pci-8086100e.ipxe

If you want more features you might want these files in your web root too:

  • wimboot
  • memdisk
  • memtest.0
  • memtest86plus-4.20.elf.img
  • memtest-report.cgi (if you want a place to send your memtest reports)

UPDATE: See https://gist.github.com/robinsmidsrod/1c7bbd4a058f0e6892df for a better menu item for SystemRescueCD than the one included below.
