Syslinux - Aug 2005 - pxelinux menu32 and two boot images

Hi, there
             now i am booting pxelinux menu32 with 2 boot images 1. DOS boot 
image 2. Thinstaion pxelinux and my directory structure is like this
(Pxelinux with menu32)

/tftpdroot/pxelinux.0
/tftpdroot/pxelinux.cfg/default
/tftpdroot/dos.imz (DOS bootimage)
/tftpdroot/memdisk (memdisk package)

(Thinstation Pxelinux)
/tftpdrooot/pxe/pxelinux.0
/tftpdroot/pxe/initrd
/tftpdroot/pxe/vmlinuz
/tftpdroot/pxe/otherconfiles
/tftpdroot/pxe/pxelinux.cfg/default

now the config from /tftpdroot/pxelinux.cfg/default     is
DEFAULT menu
PROMPT 0
NOESCAPE 1
TIMEOUT 100
IMPLICIT 0
ALLOWOPTIONS 0
MENU TITLE VRUSHYOG BOOT MENU
LABEL menu
     MENU HIDE
     KERNEL menu.c32
LABEL dos
     MENU LABEL dos nbi
     KERNEL memdisk
     append initrd=pcdos.IMZ
LABEL VRUSHYOG
     MENU LABEL PXE
     KERNEL pxe/pxelinux.0
     append ramdisk_blocksize=4096 initrd=initrd root=/dev/rd/0

and the config from /tftpdroot/pxe/pxelinux.cfg/default is

default linux
prompt 0
label linux
kernel vmlinuz
append ramdisk_blocksize=4096 initrd=initrd root=/dev/rd/0 
ramdisk_size=262144

now when i boot from dos image it boots and when i try to boot from 
thinstaion linux image it hangs and display one dot only so please suggest

This is total nonsense.  First of all, loading a different pxelinux.0 
does not (currently) mean you're loading a different configuration file, 
and either way, "append" does absolutely nothing when combined with a
.0
file.

You might be able to do:

LABEL VRUSHYOG
     MENU LABEL Thinstation
     KERNEL pxe/vmlinuz
     append ramdisk_blocksize=4096 initrd=pxe/initrd root=/dev/rd/0
