More likely to be

 label sanbootex01
   menu label [^iscsi] Boot from SAN
   kernel gpxe.lkrn
   append sanboot iscsi:192.168.0.1::::iqn.2006-09.com.example.myhost:storage

It will also need to be possible to somehow specify "keeppxe" so that pxelinux 
leaves the PXE stack intact, but without causing "keeppxe" to show up in the 
command line for gpxe.lkrn.
