Hi,

Thanks for this great project !

Here is a git-patch to add support of --arch on mkwinpeimg. It support x86 and amd64. I tested both image on PXE boot.

It should be possible to add ia64 too, with:
- arch="IA64"
- arch_id="2"

But I can't try it, I don't have IA64 at home, well I didn't put it.

Thanks for the patch! I've committed it to the git repo, and updated the man page as well. Also, I just went ahead and added ia64 for completeness, although it would be a good idea to make sure the ia64 image can actually be booted--- I'll see if I can figure out a way to do this.

Well, syslinux doesn't support ia64 so that automatically makes it a special case. I'll just leave out ia64 support for now.
