Having a default script containing
#!gpxe
autoboot
can cause problems when entering commands to load and start a kernel
manually; the default script image will still be present when the
kernel is started and so will be treated as an initrd. It is possible
to work around this by typing "imgfree" before any other commands, but
this is counter-intuitive.
Fix by allowing the embedded image list to be empty (in which case we
just call autoboot()), and making this the default.
Reported by alkisg@gmail.com.
This patch extends the embedded image feature to allow multiple
embedded images instead of just one.
gPXE now always boots the first embedded image on startup instead of
doing the hardcoded DHCP boot (aka autoboot).
Based heavily upon a patch by Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@gmail.com>.
When the embedded image is a script, the unregister_image() performed by
image/script.c corrupts memory, since image/embedded.c omitted the call
to register_image().
This is the first bug fixed using Stefan Hajnoczi's gdb stub for gPXE.
