Best guess is that something is wrong with the magic signature line at the 
start of the script, such as having whitespace before the "#!" line, or 
accidentally saving as UTF-16.

Try putting your boot.ipxe file on your webserver, then see what iPXE detects 
it as:

  imgfetch http://192.168.X.XXX/boot.ipxe
  imgselect boot.ipxe
  imgstat

That should show you the detected image type.  If it says anything other than 
"[script]" then that's the problem.

Failing that, could you attach your boot.ipxe script so I can try it out 
myself?
