I am not sure who's problem this is. Seems ipxe leaves things in a state

I have found a useable solution for my needs, but it looks like there is a
bug in either or both ipxe.efi and grubnetx64.efi.signed .
What doesn't work as expected:
# Chain load ipxe, then grubnetx64.efi
# doesn't work. grub doesn't request any files from tftp, like boot/grub.cfg
If your goal is to boot to an installer, you can do that directly from ipxe
with no need for grub. It's faster too, as ipxe can pull in the kernel and
initrd using http rather than tftp.
