Thanx, I'm going to upgrade the memory. 

I do the testing now on a Pentium90/32 MB Ram. 

I've got some questions yet:

What does the 
option option-128 e4:45:74:68:00:00; 
in the dhcpd.conf mean ?

I get now following error. Any idea why does this happen? (The exported NFS
can be mounted from an other box on the network (not diskless), so I
suppose NFS to work).

Mounting root filesystem: /opt/ltsp/i386 from: 192.168.10.50
(null)mount: nfsmount failed: Bad file number
NFS: mount program did'nt pass remote adress.
mount: Mounting 192.168.10.50:/opt/ltsp/i386 on /mnt failed: Invalid
argument

Failed to mount the root directory via NFS.
Possible reasons include:
1) NFS services may not be running on the server.
2) wORKSTATION ip does not map to a hostname either in /etc/hosts or in DNS.
3) Wrong adress for NFS server in DHCP config file.
4) Wrong pathname for root directory in DHCP config file.

Okay, my servers'IP is 192.168.10.50.

Here's my /etc/exports:

/opt/ltsp/i386                 
192.168.10.0/255.255.255.0(ro,no_root_squash)
/opt/ltsp/i386                  127.0.0.0/255.255.255.0(ro,no_root_squash)
/var/opt/ltsp/swapfiles        
192.168.10.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash)

I tried to mount the nfs form another linux box with IP 192.168.10.40 - it
has worked.

My /etc/dhcpd.conf

default-lease-time            21600;
max-lease-time                21600;

option subnet-mask            255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address      192.168.10.50;
option root-path              "192.168.10.50:/opt/ltsp/i386";
option option-129 "NIC=ne IO=0x300 IRQ=3";
option option-128 e4:45:74:68:00:00;

filename         "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.19-ltsp-1";

shared-network WORKSTATIONS {
    subnet 192.168.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
       range 192.168.10.100 192.168.10.103;
    }
}


And finaly my /etc/hosts

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1       pc4     localhost.localdomain   localhost
192.168.10.100 compa
192.168.10.101 compb
192.168.10.102 compc
192.168.10.103 compd
