kpxe unloads just the pxe stack and is the normal file we want in use as it seems to be the best between pxe/chaining I can find without flashing roms.

kkpxe keeps both undi and pxe stacks in place. kkpxe works best for buggy hardware. Only recommended if you're having weird issues with the undionly.kpxe
