RE: Grub2 : PXE : grub.cfg : setting net_efinet1_boot_file variable?

Here is the boot entry we use to load the config from a Microsoft WDS server.

 

menuentry "Continue WDS Boot" {

               chainloader \\boot\\x64/bootmgfw.efi

}

Subject: Grub2 : PXE : grub.cfg : setting net_efinet1_boot_file variable?

 

Hello,

 

I am attempting to launch WinPE from Grub2 over PXE.

 

I have tracked the problem down to the PXE client re-requesting the initial boot file and expecting it to be the Windows Boot Manager.

 

I am currently attempting to experiment with setting the environment variable net_efinet1_boot_file to the target Windows bootx64.efi file.

 

The Grub2 environment appears to have the variable net_efinet1_boot_file protected (or otherwise cannot be changed?).

 

1. Is this the direction I should pursue?

2. How do I change the net_efinet1_boot_file variable?

 

 

 

 

Thank you,

 

Joseph Kelly
