Check the following:
1. This could be a problem with entries in the
/etc/bootptab or /etc/dhpcd.conf file. Make sure the
following entries are set:
1. hd=/tftpboot/lts
2. bf=kernel where kernel is the name of the
kernel that matches the type of network card in the
workstation. Such as vmlinuz.ne2000 or
vmlinuz.rtl8139.
2. Make sure the kernel actually exists in the
/tftpboot/lts directory.
then type 'grep server_args /etc/xinetd.d/tftp', it
should answer 'server_args = -s /tftpboot'
