Change the following lines in your /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file:
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -ls /tftpboot
The second line says that /tftpboot is the default directory. You can
use another directory here or make /tftpboot a link to another
directory.
Then restart xinetd.
You should be all set.
