I see through tcpdump on the server the initial DHCP request (0.0.0.0 ->> 255.255.255.255) and the server reply (10.0.0.9 -> DS> 255.255.255.255) with the accompanying IP address for the host and his DS> MAC address; after this, all communication halts between the hosts. This can happen if etherboot (on the client side) does not accept that DHCP offer for any reason and waits for a valid one (from another server or so). An offer can be considered invalid if e.g. the "filename" value is not assigned; newer etherboot's should check for the presence of a valid filename and in absence of one ignore that offer (useful with two or more dhcp servers on the same wire).
