Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE DESKTOP 10 SP2 - DEPLOYMENT GUIDE 08-05-2008 Deployment Manual page 81

DEFAULT kernel options...
Sets the default kernel command line. If PXELINUX boots automatically, it acts
as if the entries after DEFAULT had been typed in at the boot prompt, except the
auto option is automatically added, indicating an automatic boot.
If no configuration file is present or no DEFAULT entry is present in the configu-
ration file, the default is the kernel name "linux" with no options.
APPEND options...
Add one or more options to the kernel command line. These are added for both
automatic and manual boots. The options are added at the very beginning of the
kernel command line, usually permitting explicitly entered kernel options to override
them.
LABEL label KERNEL image APPEND options...
Indicates that if label is entered as the kernel to boot, PXELINUX should instead
boot image and the specified APPEND options should be used instead of the ones
specified in the global section of the file (before the first LABEL command). The
default for image is the same as label and, if no APPEND is given, the default
is to use the global entry (if any). Up to 128 LABEL entries are permitted.
Note that GRUB uses the following syntax:
title mytitle
kernel my_kernel my_kernel_options
initrd myinitrd
PXELINUX uses the following syntax:
label mylabel
kernel mykernel
append myoptions
Labels are mangled as if they were filenames and they must be unique after man-
gling. For example, the two labels "v2.1.30" and "v2.1.31" would not be distin-
guishable under PXELINUX because both mangle to the same DOS filename.
The kernel does not have to be a Linux kernel; it can be a boot sector or a COM-
BOOT file.
