Sure.  I re-did it this morning, just to make sure that the different menu
file's weren't having any effect, and this is what I ended up with:

----start pxelinux.cfg\default
default menu.c32
prompt 0
timeout 300

label 1
 menu label Boot from hard drive (DEFAULT)
 menu default
 LOCALBOOT 0

label 10
 menu label Boot MSDOS & auto-detect NIC
 KERNEL memdisk
 APPEND initrd=autonic2.imz

Label 50
 menu label Unattended diags 3.0
 KERNEL img2a
 APPEND ramdisk_size=118784 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off vga=788
initrd=img3a.rd splash=nonverbose nomce noapic quiet acpi=off
REMOTEDIAG=true FTPSERVER=192.168.42.254 FTPUSER=anonymous
FTPPASS=anonymous FTPPATH=/diags3
----end pxelinux.cfg\default
