*	[cloud] Show CPU vendor and model in example cloud boot scripts	Michael Brown	2017-01-24	1	-0/+4
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Some problems arise only when running on a specific CPU type (e.g. non-functional timer interrupts as observed in Azure AMD instances). Include the CPU vendor and model within the sample cloud boot scripts, to assist in debugging such problems. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
*	[build] Add named configuration for public cloud environments	Michael Brown	2016-01-18	1	-0/+0
	Add a named CONFIG=cloud configuration, which enables console types useful for obtaining output from virtual machines in public clouds such as AWS EC2. An image suitable for use in AWS EC2 can be built using make bin/ipxe.usb CONFIG=cloud EMBED=config/cloud/aws.ipxe The embedded script will direct iPXE to download and execute the EC2 "user-data" file, which is always available to an EC2 VM via the URI http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data (regardless of the VPC networking settings). The boot can therefore be controlled by modifying the per-instance user data, without having to modify the boot disk image. Console output can be obtained via syslog (with a syslog server configured in the user-data script), via the AWS "System Log" (after the instance has been stopped), or as a last resort from the log partition on the boot disk.
