How about two help options?
    1) short multi-line help descriptions included in the config file
    2) longer help files included on the boot CD or downloaded.

This would allow users to use help files with the knowledge that they 
would have to be downloaded in a PXE environment.
The admin would weigh off download speed with the amount of text wanted.
