Assuming that the bootrom image is not missing
in/tftpboot/lts/boot/bootroms/ Problem is likely to be that you have not
installed the PXE stuff. or your dhcpd.conf is not able to switch from
PXE, first, to TFTP later. First, look at the directory structure of
/tftpboot/lts does it contain files for PXE? At the bottom of post is my
directory structure for example.
Second look at dhcpd.conf does it allow switch between PXE to TFTP for
the dynamic IP assingment clients? This is achieved by the following
section in my dhcpd.conf:

shared-network WORKSTATIONS {
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
 range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.200 192.168.0.225;
 use-host-decl-names       on;
 option log-servers        192.168.0.254;
 # trick from Peter Rundle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
 if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient"
  {
filename      "/lts/pxe/pxelinux.bin";
# NOTE: kernels are specified in /tftpboot/lts/pxe/pxelinux.cfg/
  }
else
  {
filename    "/lts/vmlinuz.ltsp";
  }
 }
}

For a workstation with NIC that has already been given a fixed IP the
following section in dhcpd.conf works:

host ws128 {
        hardware ethernet       00:02:3f:b3:ff:7c;
        fixed-address           192.168.0.128;
        filename              "/lts/pxe/pxelinux.bin";
        }

I hope this would help. After the sig listing of my /tftpboot/lts
follows.
