Good point. I missed that in my excessive focus on line 14. If you want 
to PXE/Etherboot another node into the cluster, then default in grub has 
to point to a SSI kernel. (And you have better booted the default 
kernel. Acually, it would be better if ssi-ksync-network ignored the 
default and just figured out what you had booted and put that into the 
/tftpboot directory.)
