Norm,

Wait a sec, are you saying you had to create the /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
file ?

That would indicate that you probably don't have the tftp server
package installed.

Try doing this:

  rpm -qa | grep tftp

and see if the tftp server is installed.  If not, then install it.
but before installing, you should remove that file you created.

Then, when that is done, restart xinetd.

And, you should have '/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-6' for the
filename setting in dhcpd.conf.

Jim.
