Hey Marko.
iPXE should be just a drop-in replacement for gPXE so what is mostly
needed is to build the iPXE images. You can decide yourself which one
seems to be more actively developed and maintained:

http://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git/shortlog

Basically all what's needed is to have a system with the needed tools
to build the iPXE images (adjust the embedded image as needed):
yum install git make gcc perl syslinux genisoimage
git clone
git://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git ipxe.git
cd ipxe.git/src
make EMBEDDED_IMAGE=bfo.gpxe bin/ipxe.iso
make EMBEDDED_IMAGE=bfo.gpxe bin/ipxe.usb
make EMBEDDED_IMAGE=bfo.gpxe bin/ipxe.dsk
make EMBEDDED_IMAGE=bfo.gpxe bin/ipxe.lkrn
I tried this and got:
make: *** No rule to make target `bin/ipxe.iso'. Stop.
basically it doesn't seem they understand a EMBEDDED_IMAGE option.
Thoughts?
