Shouldn't these default to the current image server?  Clearly, a
DHCP-based option is preferred, but that can come later if not now--the
image server can still be the default in this event, anyway.

>(i.e. with --append "MONITOR_SERVER=10.0.0.2" to si_mkautoinstallcd)

Why not control this via the pxelinux.cfg/default file?  This allows a
per-host/per-range/per-subnet default per the standard config file
selection process.  I would also suggest the usual IP:PORT or [EMAIL PROTECTED]
syntax for this definition method, with IP and PORT broken out by boel.
If nothing is specified in the config file, use the default; if null is
specified, i.e., "MONITOR=", then monitoring is disabled.
