unknown keyword in configuration file: IPAPPEND
Description of problem:
I was testing out full host bootdisk w/ static IP and found that when we
boot the host w/ bootdisk, an error appeared on screen as :
unknown keyword in configuration file: IPAPPEND
its not affecting the overall provisioning but appears while booting the host w/ ISO.
here is the preview pf PXELinux template:
=======================================

IPAPPEND 2
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sat6.3 snap15
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot the host w/ static IP full host bootdisk
2.
3.
Actual results:
on booting the host w/ bootdisk ISO: unknown keyword in configuration file: IPAPPEND
Expected results:
no error should be there
Additional info:
So I took a closer look on this, IPAPPEND is a statement which is not recognized in SYSLINUX older than 5.10.
In both RHEL6 and RHEL7 there is SYSLINUX version 4.0x therefore this warning is expected.
https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/syslinux/4.05-13.el7/x86_64/fd431d51/package
I suggest to put this on backlog but there is no work associated, after SYSLINUX is rebased in RHEL this will disappear. Bootdisk does not need the IPAPPEND 2 option at all, we might want to remove it.
Is that tracked upstream? It should be linked or cloned when marked as devel triaged. Also I changed the component, tje template should be updated in bootdisk right?
