minor wiki documentation error for scripts

On the following wiki page - http://etherboot.org/wiki/commandline
It claims the script field name for the iSCSI target is
initiator_iqn_setting. I was not able to use that field name (I
received errors), but the following field name does seem to work -
initiator-iqn
I believe it is just a documentation error, since other fields use a
dash instead of an underscore in the name and don't feel a need to add
the word "setting" at the end of the name.
I now have a script that sets the initiator name to match the format
that Linux or Windows would have used natively.
My Windows Script is:
#!gpxe
set initiator-iqn iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:${12:string}
sanboot ${17:string}
My script for Centos is:
#!gpxe
set initiator-iqn iqn.2005-03.com.max:${12:string}
sanboot ${17:string}
Both scripts take the hostname that was provided by DHCP and append it
to a constant value that is appropriate for the Guest OS being used.
Then the script does a regular iSCSI boot using the root path parameter
passed by DHCP.
