It also will have SMB so I can store acronis images. So maybe I should just take the KISS approach and stick to CDs afterall and keep that server HTTP only, which is basically where I will download misc utils, programs etc. Though the other issue is having a tftp server (which is not very secure) open on that server is not ideal, since that vlan will see all sorts of machines, possibly virus infected ones. It seems it always boots straight into the default one. It's a bit simpler to stick to booting specific Linux distros that support PXE, so I might do just that once I can get the menus to actually work.
Probably because it's so big it has to load that into memory via tftp and times out. I found a way that creates a memory disk ISO but I just tried it with win10 and it fails to boot, like it just sits at a black screen. I was hoping it could be as simple as dropping ISOs in a folder structure and it auto generates a menu or something. Yeah more I read into this the more I see how convoluted it is, and all the tutorials only tell you half the details.
