What pxe loader are you using? If your using the intel one, your
pretty limited. I would recomended the pxelinux loader thats part
of the syslinux package. It lets you include a syslinux.cfg config
file so you can specify all the command line options.

It seems like this used to work, though it's been a while since
I tried it. The default images included with the pxe package will
allow you to do this I belive (linux.0...)
