You mean ansi bootmenu? If yes, ac100 community member tried to enable
it for our board,
but extlinux.conf was proposed as better solution, here is link
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/450122/

I tried to use extlinux.conf with openSUSE  on Chromebook Snow,
because its support already enabled there, and it work flawlessly and
very flexible,
take a look at README.distro in u-boot repo, also as it is same as pxe
config file kiwi probably already have
support for it.

Here is example of my test extlinux.conf:

TIMEOUT 1000
ONTIMEOUT localboot
DEFAULT default
MENU TITLE Boot menu
PROMPT 0

LABEL default
        MENU LABEL Default
        LINUX /boot/zImage
        FDT /boot/dtb/exynos5250-snow.dtb
        INITRD /boot/initrd
        APPEND root=/dev/disk/by-id/mmc-SL08G_0x01978580-part3

resume=/dev/disk/by-id/mmc-SL08G_0x01978580-part4 plymouth.enable=0
console=ttySAC3,115200n8 console=tty

LABEL failsafe
        MENU LABEL Failsafe
        LINUX /boot/zImage-4.1.5-exynos_defconfig
        FDT /boot/dtb/exynos5250-snow.dtb

console=ttySAC3,115200n8 console=tty

LABEL localboot
        MENU LABEL Local boot script (boot.scr)
        LOCALBOOT 1
