Sure enough, my virtual machine successfully PXE booted right away.
Later, I created a new virtual machine and noticed the option to ‘install an operating system from a network-based installation server’. I selected this option, completed the wizard, opened the VM’s settings and wouldn’t you know it, the wizard had created a VM with a ‘legacy network adapter’ this time.
