+- UEFI Shell available under utilities for x86/ARM UEFI mode
+- Floppy boot images for UEFI
+- Dasharo Tools Suite

+## Changed

+- Moves win_base_url and rhel_base_url out of boot.cfg to local-vars.ipxe as they are
+  user defined variables.
+- Adds a check in boot.cfg to see if live_endpoint is set from local-vars.ipxe. This
+  will allow the user to set their overrides locally on their network.
