Yep. Got all that working now. I can boot Win8 from my new SAN protocol

haven't finished yet).
Awesome. Out of curiosity, what is this SAN protocol?
It's a secret :)
I look forward to learning the secret when you release the code (under
GPL)! :)
Another question, maybe OT for this list, it looks like the acpi_describe
functionality might append my description into the ACPI table into memory, but
when my windows driver uses AuxKlibEnumerateSystemFirmwareTables('ACPI', ...),
my new table isn't there (just the expected ACPI tables). Am I right about what
I think this does? I can see that iPXE definitely calls my _describe function.
I can fall back to just scanning low memory for my signature, but that doesn’t
seem nearly as elegant.
Scanning low memory is how iSCSI works (for the iBFT). AFAIK, there is
no standard way for us to link in an extra ACPI table to the RSDT.
