Martin, Try grabbing the ltsp_kernel-3.0.15 package from the ltsp.org download page.
Install that, and change the 'filename' entry in your dhcpd.conf file to point to '/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.24-ltsp-4', instead of vmlinuz.ltsp. Give that a try, and see if it boots properly on your thing client. You say you tried 'option-129 "mem=32M"', but did you also include an option-128 line, with the special value of 'e4:45:74:68:00:00' ? Without that value in option-128, then option-129 will be completely ignored. Also, setting NFS-Swap at this point is useless. Your kernel hasn't gotten far enough to do anything with nfs swap.
