Syslinux - Aug 2007 - Booting Physical CD with PXELINUX

Is there a way to start or trigger the el-torito process from PXELinux?

 

On my network, veeeeery occasionally I have the need to start the
contents of a boot cd or usb stick from pxelinux, is there a device node
(like grub has) that I can call to create a label like 

 

                LABEL StartCD

                                Menu LABEL Boot from the CD Drive

                                KERNEL (CD)(0)/BOOT/ISOLINUX

 

                LABEL STARTUSB

                                Menu LABEL Boot from USB

                                KERNEL (USB)(FLOPPY/HD/CD)

 

Or

 

                                CHAIN (CD)(0)

 

Or Something like that; thanks.

There isn't right now.

There is a way it might be doable, but I haven't experimented with it yet.
