I did see yours, but I prefer to keep it self contained and not

make a directory
copy 3 files to the directory
add some lines to /etc/cobbler/pxe/pxedefault.template
cobbler sync
What you prefer is strongly *not* what I prefer. By doing that you are
losing a lot of automation/tweakage potential.
You do not have to use the web interface, of course. Simple command line
tweakage would be fine.
Also,
It would be nice if there was a variable available in the
pxedefault.template that is the IP address of the cobbler server.
@@server@@ works in internal variables (sort of, it's an undocumented
hack), all the more reason to create a real distro/profile.

Not sure if you saw my post, since we are top posting here on this
thread. But I think its better to do this from Cobbler Web.
1. Add a Distro - make sure the distro names matches the name of the
folder created under /tftpboot/images. If not cobbler will create a
new folder matching the distro name specified. Update the field for
kernel, initrd and kernel options.
2. Create a profile and enable PXE menu
3. Sync
That's it.

That’s exactly what I was looking for. I’ve updated
https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/wiki/ClonezillaIntegration
I changed it to use tftp for the squashfs instead of httpd so
everything is kept in one place. I used /tftpboot/profiles/clonezilla
instead of /tftpboot/images/clonezilla to stay out of cobbler’s way.

So, the next step in clonezilla integration is getting "cobbler sync"
not to blow away the update. I can move things around so that I'm not
dropping files in the cobbler directory, but how can I add something to
/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default and have it stick? Is there a template
or some other way to manually add grub/pxe options?
