thanks for the report. i suspect you mean 5.0.39debian1 ? > I also noticed that although tftpd-hpa and openbsd-inetd were packages > installed as dependencies, the 'tftp' entry in inetd.conf was not inserted as > part of the package install. consequently tftpd did not work when I tried to > boot the ltsp client.
