Yes: embed a gPXE script.

~/gpxe/src$ cat >startup.gpxe <<EOF

~/gpxe/src$ make bin/gpxe.iso EMBEDDED_IMAGE=startup.gpxe

You can modify this example for different script lines or a different
make target. You can also embed multiple images, so e.g. you could
have both a script that booted a kernel and the kernel itself embedded
in gPXE.

Hope this helps,
