Hi Kevin,
When I tried to PXEBoot some new servers we got, the servers ignored
xCAT's default PXELinux booting process, so I converted their boot mode
to Legacy (BIOS based), and installed them without problem. Since our
time was limited, I had no time to work on that issue further.

I'm trying to PXE-boot a new server (during the discovery process, so xCAT
only has very limited information about it so far). IPMI and the serial
console are working, so I can collect the log information.
The crash happens in DxeCore.efi. The first question is whether xCAT
supports PXE booting
Thank you so much, Victor and Casandra! It's making sense now, and I to it
at least partially to work.
So to summarize:
- I predefine a node with the final name and attributes I want.
- bmcdiscover uses nmap to scan for new systems with IPMI, but otherwise
powered off, and generates temporary
