+Due to size constraints, one may need to set
+.Va LOADERSIZE
+larger than the
+default 500000, although often loader is under the 500k limit even with
+this option.
+Setting
+.Va LOADERSIZE
+larger than 500000 may cause
+.Xr pxeboot 8
+to be too large to work.
+Careful testing of the loader in the target environment when built with a larger
+limit to establish safe limits is critical because different BIOS environments
+reserve differing amounts of the low 640k space, making a precise limit for
+everybody impossible.

+See also
+.Va WITH_LOADER_PXEBOOT
