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";
}
