Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netbootxyz/netboot.xyz/issues/572

When trying to do an ipxe boot of CentOS 8 for arm64, the $arch variable that is used in the link is defined as arm64 which results in a failure when trying to fetch the image. The proper platform triplet which should be used for that link is aarch64.
