📄 Description

In order to use identical key names for menu entries we need a separate yaml array for UEFI stuff.

This does not offer any scripted customization from the ipxe menu though it should be OK for an initial release it is certainly better than memdisk.
Also on boot Clonezilla lets you set remote scripted install locations so not sure what benefit there is to doing it in IPXE. If a user want to use hooks they should be local hosting and customizing the clonezilla.ipxe file.
