which version of syslinux are you using for the boot menu? Is this a special version?
E.g. Suse is using a highly patched version of syslinux.

AFAIK there's nothing like a 'menu' in syslinux, only the possiblity to have some 
'boot:'-prompt and to display some boot image (which can have some instructions
on what to do here). The same is possible with pxelinux.
