[et-mgmt-tools] PXE boot menus & older versions of pxelinux/syslinux

I've noticed that the pxelinux that ships with RHEL4 (test platform:
RHEL4U4) does not work well at all with new PXE menus, though the
version shipping with FC6 works great. Basically it doesn't understand
the menu label options.
If you have RHEL4's version of syslinux installed, the fix here is to
install a newer syslinux. I'll file the bug for good measure (if this
is even a bug?) and may bundle a known-good pxelinux.0 in the next
release. The workaround is pretty simple though. If anyone still
has questions, feel free to ask.
