well that set the hostname alright but it didn't pull the class 
definition... i'm a bit confused now.

i set grub to append the ip=:::::dhcp nfsroot=127.x.x.x:/srv/fai/nfsroot 
HOSTNAME=TEST

and yeah i changed the line to look like

#! /bin/bash

# assign classes hosts
# use a list of classes for our demo machine
case $HOSTNAME in
    TEST)
        echo "TEST DHCPC" ;;
#    *)
#       echo "FAIBASE DHCPC" ;;
esac

(ifclass I386 || ifclass AMD64) && echo GRUB
exit 0
