I don't have a ready list of things to check.  Maybe someone else
does.  But, at least you know what the problem is.  If you have a
firewall on, check those settings.  After that, start doing web
searches, unless someone else posts a good answer.  That's what I do.
It's either (a) there is no image, (b) tftpd isn't offering the image
(c) the computer isn't allowing it to go out (d) some other computer
is getting in the way, (e) etc...  Could there be another machine on
the network trying to give it an image and confusing things?

Once, I had a similar problem because my server was really busy doing
a few fsck operations on ether drives (hard drives over the ethernet).
 The extra network traffic and local I/O activity made the server slow
to respond, and it didn't get the image out in time.  After the fsck's
were done, boot happened normally.
