Anyone have luck with pxechn32 and bootmgfw.efi? I'm getting the "Unable to retrieve first package" issue as reported by others. Really, any advice for UEFI booting into a winpe environment off of pxelinux 6.03 would be beneficial.

The documentation isn't up yet, but you can get the code from http://git.ipxe.org/release/wimboot and see the (not-yet-UEFIfied) docs at http://ipxe.org/wimboot. Michael

This got me closer, but it got to "Encapsulating winpe.wim..." and
never went through the rest of the way. Ultimately PXELINUX apparently timed out
and the machine rebooted.
Here is relative portion of pxelinux:
LABEL SCCM OSD Boot
MENU LABEL ^2. SCCM OSD Boot
com32 linux.c32
append wimboot initrdfile=bootmgr.exe,BCD,boot.sdi,winpe.wim
TEXT HELP
Deployment of Operating System via SCCM.

As it happens, I released a new version of wimboot with support for UEFI
yesterday. The documentation isn't up yet, but you can get the code from
http://git.ipxe.org/release/wimboot and see the (not-yet-UEFIfied) docs at
http://ipxe.org/wimboot.
