yum install dhcp tftp tftp-server

Bryan:

yum install nfs-utils tftp-server syslinux-tftpboot syslinux

mkdir /tftpboot

grub2-mknetdir --net-directory=/tftpboot/efi

Create file /etc/systemd/system/tftp.service:

[Unit]
Description=Tftp Server
Requires=tftp.socket
Documentation=man:in.tftpd

[Service]
#ExecStart=/usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /var/lib/tftpboot
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /tftpboot
StandardInput=socket

[Install]
Also=tftp.socket

Start tftp:

systemd start tftp

Create file /tftpboot/efi/boot/grub2/grub.cfg with following contents:

function load_video {
insmod efi_gop
insmod efi_uga
insmod video_bochs
insmod video_cirrus
insmod all_video
}
