PXE API docs

Anyone who's interested in PXE might want to read the start of the 
Etherboot PXE documentation, at 

  http://www.etherboot.org/api/group__pxe.html

The UDP API and TFTP API documentation is now fairly extensive, and 
includes information about known bugs in the specification, 
recommendations for PXE NBPs etc. as well as documenting how the Etherboot 
PXE implementation does (or, in some cases, will) work.

I'd particularly recommend 

  http://www.etherboot.org/api/pxe_notes.html#pxe_note_tftp

for a long and detailed explanation of precisely why the PXE TFTP API is 
fundamentally broken, and a proposed workaround that doesn't involve 
violating any specifications.

My aim is that this documentation becomes the definitive reference work 
for PXE, superseding the PXE specification v2.1.
