Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I have to do some changes of settings done in boot.cfg, actually I have to check for changes on every update, as it is not updated anymore via the web ui update

Describe the solution you'd like

I added following line in boot.cfg between :end and exit

chain custom.cfg ||

which seems to do what I need: override some settings and add some for my custom ipxe scripts

Describe alternatives you've considered

change boot.cfg, but then I have take handle updates of boot.cfg manually

Additional context
