I was able to get past the root= fail with the following "default" for tftp.

prompt 1
default linux
timeout 100

label linux
kernel vmlinuz
append initrd=initrd.img ramdisk_size=9216 askmethod root=live:http://192.168.1.13/squashfs.img

BUT NOW when I enter http://192.168.1.13/fc17/os the loader complains there is no valid tree there.
This used to work but not with Fedora 17.
I tried it with NFS but that failed the same way.
(this refers to an rsync clone: mirrors.kernel.org::fedora/development/17/x86_64/os /z/fc17)

I noticed a new initrd.img in the pxeboot directory
so I copied it anc vmlinuz to my tftpd directory.
It still fails looking for its root.

I presume this bug will be a beta blocker.
