## Overview | ||
|
||
**Tired of re-compiling iPXE just to change the embedded script?** This repository, which provides builds of iPXE with an embedded script that chainloads `/config.ipxe` relative to the TFTP server that iPXE was booted from, might be of help to you! | ||

A release `.tar.gz` archive with the latest iPXE release is built weekly and uploaded to [GitHub releases](https://github.com/pojntfx/ipxe-binaries/releases). | ||
|
||
Binaries are compiled with HTTPS support enabled and are being built for the following [iPXE build targets](https://ipxe.org/appnote/buildtargets): | ||
