So, here's the strange part. The Xen HVM domUs clearly use gPXE, now.
However, if I look at the pxe-rtl8139.bin file, it's still Etherboot:
rtl8139.zrom 5.4.2 (GPL) etherboot.org
Furthermore, after attempting to replace this file, the domUs don't boot,
anymore - they hang at boot time. I think this may be because the new boot
ROM, generated by gPXE (rom-o-matic.net) is larger than 32K - all of the other
ones appear to be 32K. So, the ROM file says Etherboot, if I replace it, it
causes a failed boot, but Xen says gPXE??
