I think you mean inetd.conf

On a RH system I run dhcpd with the following dhcpd.conf file entry for
a client. This seems to work fine for me.

host brdc03 {
   hardware ethernet 0:e0:4c:74:70:53;
   fixed-address 10.77.77.60;
   filename "/tftpboot/bootimage";
}

I don't think inetd is servicing the bootp request. Maybe try dhcpd.

Good luck, Kyle.
