I use this for PXE boot:

label quantal-live
        menu label Ubuntu Live ^CD
        kernel quantal/ubuntu-desktop/casper/vmlinuz
        append ipv6.disable=1
initrd=quantal/ubuntu-desktop/casper/initrd.lz boot=casper toram
netboot=nfs nfsroot=<HOST>:/var/www/install/quantal/ubuntu-desktop quiet
keyboard-configuration/layoutcode=de

Works really nice, especially with the toram feature :-)

HTH,
Schlomo
