we’re updating to a new ipxe[1] soon, so you can give it a try if it maybe
works (i dont’ see the option added though) or if there is some other way how
to do that
otherwise I guess you would have to recompile, but if you bump up the version
yourself and put it into your own repo it should always have a precedence
