Hi, there are many models of 905's... the only one that can boot from ntwk
is the 3C905C-TX-M, check that.
Then the only thing you must do to enable network booting is:
./imggen -a tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.22-ltsp-2 
tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.22-ltsp-2.3c905c 
Edit dhcpd.conf and for that MAC, tell which kernel has to download...and then it is 
ready:-)
bye
Luciano
