I do it in the FAI_FLAGS that are passed in the pxe config.  Example:

overlord:/srv/tftp/fai/pxelinux.cfg# cat x86_template
# template generated by fai-chboot for host node-28 with IP 10.23.5.138 
from source /srv/tftp/fai/pxelinux.cfg/0A170589.disable
# generated by fai-chboot for host node-27 with IP 10.23.5.137
default fai-generated

label fai-generated
kernel vmlinuz-install
append ip=dhcp FAI_ACTION=install FAI_FLAGS=reboot root=/dev/nfs 
nfsroot=/srv/fai/nfsroot_i386,v3,tcp,rsize=32768,wsize=32768
overlord:/srv/tftp/fai/pxelinux.cfg#
