Have a look at netbootmgr and the /etc/netbootmgr.conf file. You'll need to
create your optimized kernel boot pxelinux.cfg files, copy /tftpboot/kernel-x
to something appropriate (located in /tftpboot) and add it to the
netbootmgr.conf file like this:

MENU Kernel-2.6.9-22.0.2.ELsmp:kernel-2.6.9-22.0.2.ELsmp

Here the word before the ":" is the netbootmgr menu label, the word after is
the filename of the pxelinux.cfg located in /tftpboot that corresponds to it.

The file you've seen created in /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg is coming from
systemimager. If netbootmgr is running, that file will be replaced by a
symlink to /tftpboot/localboot. You'll have to change that to point to your
boot config in the netbootmgr panel.

Netbootmgr is neither complete nor finished, but already useful enough to some
people. It will be improved, but I can't promise this will happen very soon...

Regards,
Erich
