The hardcoded boot order method when using seabios with coreboot makes booting from option roms difficult if the number of hard drives installed is not a fixed number. I used this patch to allow choosing the last boot device by setting the nibble to 0xf. This allows me to boot from the gPXE option rom.

I don't think that is necessary.

-        IPL.bootorder = 0x00000231;
+        IPL.bootorder = 0x0000231f;

You want:

        IPL.bootorder = 0x00002314;

which will set the default order to option rom (BEV), floppy, cdrom,
and then hard drive.

Ah yes, I see. It threw me off because the boot menu showed all my hard drives and put gPXE as item 6.
