Except that the length should be 128 to match the boot file name length that BOOTP / DHCP can pass as per RFC.
Personnaly, I'll prefer 1K length because if you use as I use a lost of time a full path when downloading uImage or other so a path with a length over than 512 arrive often.
So is there a newer RFC that changes this? IIRC the max length is defined as 128 bytes.
