The config directory is determined by DHCP option 210 if one is present,
otherwise by the filename used to fetch pxelinux.0 itself.
Now, there is a catch here -- this is the filename as provided by the
DHCP stack. At this point, chainloading a new pxelinux.0 doesn't change
this; this may be possible to change although it is dependent on the PXE
stack.
