I have been using the following for the "default" file in tftpd. It has worked until Fedora 17, which needs a root= phrase. However I can find no information on what that phrase should be. What should it be changed to?

I have looked at the document and have no idea of what to include in a root= phrase. Apparently no one else does or they would mention a universal root= that just works as well as Fedora 16 pxeboot did without a root= phrase.
Between a broken pxeboot and an anaconda that flips out when it sees the wrong version of Linux on the hard drive, I would think folks would wish to get a robust install experience before proclaiming a public beta.
