Hello, Ross!

Currently, we are using a Yocto-based network equipment software distribution 
called TanoWRT (https://tano-systems.gitlab.io/meta-tanowrt/).
This distribution provides a way to create images that can be used to 
facilitate network boot process using PXE. Those images are actually ISO 
images, and they work well for x86-based platforms, since they use already 
available syslinux stubs that were used for that purpose for a very long time. 
Unfortunately, syslinux does not support platforms that use CPU of different 
architectures, which, however, still support network boot process as per the 
UEFI spec. For those platforms, the image that is used for network boot is 
still the very same ISO image, the only difference is that it has the 2nd stage 
bootloader in a standard EFI PE format prepended to it.
I hope that my explanation answers you question.

Best regards, Andrey.
