Yep. Got all that working now. I can boot Win8 from my new SAN protocol
(well... up to the point where it wants my windows SAN driver, which I haven't
finished yet).
Awesome. Out of curiosity, what is this SAN protocol?
There's nothing that currently exposes this specifically for use within
iPXE. We do remap the underlying INT13 drive so that it remains
accessible (under a different drive number).
So calling INT13 with the new driver number would work. How can I tell what
driver number this would be? But actually, what I need to to is to hide this
drive from Windows too (the windows loader at least - I'll take care of hiding
it from windows itself), so probably I want to call the original INT13 vector
and avoid the remapping... fun times ahead!
Why do you need to hide it from the Windows loader? As long as each
drive already has a unique signature (within the MBR), Windows is
generally fairly good at ignoring unrelated drives; you shouldn't need
to explicitly hide it.
