Norm, 2 more things I need to know.
1) Show me the /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file. Particularly the server_args line. Is there a '-s' on that line ? If so, then you DON'T need the '/tftpboot' in the filename entry in dhcpd. if there is NOT a '-s', then you DO need the '/tftpboot'. 2) What is in your /tftpboot/lts directory ? Is the kernel there ?
