IICR this can be done by tagging different kernel-images with mknbi-linux and 
the --append=<string> option (for example: --append="init=3").With the etherboot 
menu you should be able to choose the different images at boot time.

I've never tested it by myself, but in theorie it should work.

Have fun,
Carsten.
