These re PXE bits I've picked up too:
# PXE stuff
# Definition of PXE-specific options
# Code 1: Multicast IP address of bootfile
# Code 2: UDP port that client should monitor for MTFTP responses
# Code 3: UDP port that MTFTP servers are using to listen for MTFTP requests
# Code 4: Number of secondes a client must listen for activity before trying
#         to start a new MTFTP transfer
# Code 5: Number of secondes a client must listen before trying to restart
#         a MTFTP transfer
option space PXE;
option PXE.mtftp-ip    code 1 = ip-address;
option PXE.mtftp-cport code 2 = unsigned integer 16;
option PXE.mtftp-sport code 3 = unsigned integer 16;
option PXE.mtftp-tmout code 4 = unsigned integer 8;
option PXE.mtftp-delay code 5 = unsigned integer 8;


and
           class "pxeclients"
                {
                                match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient";
                                option vendor-class-identifier "PXEClient";
# At least one of the vendor-specific option must be set.       We set
# the MCAST IP address to 0.0.0.0 to tell the bootrom to still use
# TFTP (address 0.0.0.0 is considered as "no address")
#                               option PXE.mtftp-ip 192.168.0.1; vendor-option-space PXE;
                                option PXE.mtftp-ip 0.0.0.0; vendor-option-space PXE;
                                filename "/PXE/pxelinux.0";
                }



And there's this for the boot roms available from rom-o-matic:
# Filched from http://clic.mandrakesoft.com/documentation/pxe/ch04.html
      class "Etherboot"
                {
                                 match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 13) = "Etherboot-5.0";
                                 option vendor-encapsulated-options 3c:09:45:74:68:65:72:62:6f:6f:74:ff;
                                 option vendor-class-identifier "Etherboot-5.0";
                                 vendor-option-space PXE;
                                 option PXE.mtftp-ip 0.0.0.0;
                                 filename "/tftpboot.ser";
                }
