Ole,

Are you using PXE or Etherboot ?

If you are using PXE, then you sure don't want to be
loading a Linux kernel.  PXE is a 2 stage boot loader,
it will load something like pxelinux, which will in turn
load the linux kernel.

Take a look at the document on ltsp.org that explains how
to do PXE booting.

the URL is:  http://www.ltsp.org/documentation/pxe.howto.html

that should help you out.
