Description:
Currently none of the binaries provided by the ipxe package supports framebuffer console. Since recently there was an effort to provide an alternative set of binaries allowing for custom configuration script, it may be a good opportunity to also add another set supporting framebuffer console as well as PNG image format.
To do that ipxe should be compiled with some minor changes done to “config/console.h” and “config/general.h”, exactly as described here: https://ipxe.org/buildcfg/console_framebuffer.
