Mkay, I've put the lines in the "global" settings and now I get some new
errors. Please bare with me, I'm new to both LTSP and Linux...

My dhcpd.conf have these two lines up in the global section
option option-128             code 128 = string;
option option-129             code 129 = string; (tried both string and
text here)

And these down in the end of the file...
    host ws003 {
        hardware ethernet     00:60:08:CF:FA:3F;
        fixed-address         192.168.1.11;
        filename              "vmlinuz.ltsp";
        option option-128     e4:45:74:68:00:00;   #This is NOT a
MACaddress
        option option-129     "NIC=3c509 IO=0x0300";


It boots on the floppy, but problem arises when the drivers should load
again.

ERROR! Failed to install the NIC driver module!
         This could be caused by the wrong module for your particular
         network interface card. Double check the 'option-129' entry 
         in your /etc/dhcpd.conf file

Any help would be appreciated...
