OK, scratch that. The "PXE" string is the default prompt.
Most likely, as far as I can see, there must be at least one pxe-service
config line, for with a CSA which doesn't match the machine you're PXE
booting. (You're booting an EFI system, so maybe there's something starting
pxe-service=x86PC,........
which won't provide a bootable image to an EFI system.)
If there really isn't such a line, then there's a bug in the code which
I can't see from inspection.
A workaround, will be to use full PXE and provide a correct pxe-service
line, something like
pxe-server=X86-64_EFI,boot,BOOTX64.efi
But note that the PXE system will add ".0" to the filename, so the file
on the TFTP server should be renamed
BOOTX64.efi.0
Cheers,
Simon.
