Syslinux - Aug 2013 - Kernel selection by hardware?

Hello,

is it possible to select the default boot image by hardware properties?

I corrently boot a couple of laptops fom a single USB stick and I would like
to select the default kernel image automatically.

This depends on which properties...

Is ifcpu.c32 or ifcpu64.c32 sufficient for your task? In LessLinux I use 
those to either boot a 64 bit kernel, a 32 bit kernel with PAE enables 
or a 32 bit kernel without PAE according to the features of the CPU.

No. I need to detect a given machine by something unique. E.g. the
MAC-address of the Ethernet Interface CPU-id or such, because I have custom
kernels for all the machines.
