Hi Philipp,
Thanks for your response. Yeah I actually figured that out after looking
looking at the netcfg code and seeing the "01-" being purposefully excluded
from the address capture. So then I looked up the specification for
PXELINUX and saw the hardware type at the start.
So, I've just hardcoded (eww) a "01-" before the ${netX/mac} in the iPXE
config.
Thanks for the answer! And sorry for not updating this sooner. This can
probably be closed as a non-issue, but not sure if it's worth while adding
a comment to the code, or something.
Regards,
James
