add always_pxe option to create-device (and future "update-device") #24

Closed sygibson closed 6 years ago

sygibson commented 6 years ago

Packet supports setting "always_pxe" to true - which forces the machine to ALWAYS (ahem...) PXE boot every time, instead of on the first provisioning attempt. This in conjunction with "userdata" specifying alternate iPXE options enables complete control of a machine with non-Packet provisioning systems.

I'd like to ask that "baremetal create-device" command include an "--always_pxe=true" option.

Subsequently, when/if "baremetal update-device" is added, that this feature be added to support setting "always_pxe" to "true" or "false". see #23
