  Using the dhcp option 150 is a hack, I used one that is not used and not common to avoid any issue with existing setups where option 66 is used for something else (given it is common) I was maybe going to far with that.
  
  IMHO the best is to detect the protocol in the root path. But as I stated in the commit log, ipxe is already doing that proto://... and when one chainload from ipxe to pxeboot which is quite common these days ipxe will fail on protocols it does not know about.
  
  If someone find a way to have all the informations in the rootpath without ipxe chainload failing, this is imho the best idea.
