Antonio,

I had the same problem last month. So I have a couple of questions . . .

1) What type of clients are you using?
2) Is nfs running? (as root: service nfs status)
3) Does it boot properly when the client is connect to the server with a 
crossover cable?

You can check through the archives for a resolution, but here's a snip of what 
I did to resolve the problem.

I was finally able to get this issue resolved (I think...). I"m not sure which 
of these
changes really made the difference, since I didn"t do them one-by-one, but 
here"s what I
did:

 1) Disabled the onboard AMD nic
 2) Threw in a generic tulip nic and went into bios and adjusted the IRQ to 3 
(I think it
was using 10 or 11 previously, which probably conflicts with something on the 
server)
 3) In /etc/dhcpd.conf I added a section for the workstation and defined 
option-129 like
below
 (see http://www.k12ltsp.org/phpwiki/index.php/Tecnical:Booting:ISA for further 
explanation)

      host ws004 {
          hardware ethernet     00:A0:24:A3:14:19;
          option option-128     e4:45:74:68:00:00;
          option option-129     "NIC=tulip";
      }

 Worked like a charm at the next boot!

 HTH,
 john smith
