Details:

Hi,
we are currently testing grub2 as a replacement for pxelinux. Since our
systems have two or more network cards we need to append BOOIF=01:<mac-address
of the boot interface> to the command line of the kernel.

With pxelinux we used "IPAPPEND 2" - it seems that this functionality is
missing in grub2 - am I right?

Cheers
Rainer Stumbaum
