Good day again Michael,
You might potentially be interested in linux.c32, as well. Whether you
use IPAPPEND or linux.c32, either way I believe that you have to
customize the distro to make use of the passed parameters.
If you take a look at syslinux/com32/modules/linux.c, you will see that
this COMBOOT32 module accepts "-dhcpinfo" as an argument. The behaviour
here is that linux.c32 will dynamically append a "dhcpinfo.dat" file to
the initramfs. Like /proc/cmdline, you can then access this information
from the Linux' startup processes.
LABEL foo
COM32 linux.c32
INITRD my_initrd
APPEND -dhcpinfo vmlinuz some kernel arguments
