You need   "linux24"   potentially followed by other cheat codes such as
lang=en or noscsi ...

I didn't integrate that 2.4.27 kernel all that well as the F2 + F3 help texts
weren't updated, and the isolinux.cfg isn't quite right -- hence the need for
'knoppix' or 'linux26' (both equivalent) or 'linux24' for the older kernel
with openMosix support.

Yup, seconded.
