[syslinux] PXE Boot Menu with iSCSI and AOE!

Hello,

gPXE works OK for me when chainloading Pxelinux.0 -> gPXE. The only thing missing for me currently is that dhcpd.conf is limited to only one "option root-path", where I would need more than one if I want to make a menu with different operating system who use aoe, iscsi, and similar root paths. Therefore, I'd like to ask you, if it's maybe possible to somehow change the code of pxelinux (or gpxe) to get the "option root-path" directly from pxelinux.cfg/default script or is there maybe an option to compile undionly.kpxe with already integrated static root-path. last case would mean I have to compile many different undionly.kpxe modules, but that's OK if this is an only option.
However, any solution would be great!

Thanks again, Tomaz.
 

We have some ideas for pretty sophisticated integration between gPXE and 
PXELINUX, however, this is currently stalled due to problems with 
undionly.kpxe in the current gPXE tree (which look like memory 
corruption to me.)

The best thing anyone could do to help this move forward would be to 
help debug these problems.  Once those are there, we should be able to 
put in the additional gPXE/PXELINUX interfaces easily enough.
