You need to supply the option-128 parameter - it's a fixed string, type
it exactly like this (from a v3 setup):

    host xxxx {
      hardware ethernet     00:C0:4F:hh:hh:hh;
      fixed-address         192.168.0.n;
      filename              "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-5";
      option option-128     e4:45:74:68:00:00;  
      option option-129     "NIC=3c509 IO=0x300";
     }
