Check /etc/dhcpd.conf
The DHPC server tells the client which kernel to load using "filename".
For example:
filename "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-5";

This can help debug tftp problems, but you don't need it. You do need
tftp-server.
When you set up your tftp server, make sure you tell it to chroot to
/tftpboot when it starts; to do that in Red Hat, you specify
"server_args = -s /tftpboot" in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp. If your
distribution uses inetd instead of xinetd, you will need to include the
"-s /tftpboot" option on the tftp line in /etc/inetd.conf. Without this
option, tftp is a major security problem.
If the kernel is in /tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-sample, then in dhcpd.conf you
need to specify "filename /lts/vmlinuz-sample". Notice that the
"/tftpboot" gets left off; that's what the "-s /tftpboot" does.
