Press control-alt-f1 on the terminal and see if you get the following output.

    * mount: Mounting /nbd0 on /rofs failed: Invalid argument
    * mount: Mounting /rofs on /root/rofs failed: Invalid argument
    * cp: unable to open '/root/etc/': Is a directory
    * mount: Mounting /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed: No such file or 
directory
    * mount: Mounting /sys on /root/sys failed: No such file or directory
    * mount: Mounting /proc on /root/proc failed: No such file or directory
    * Target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init

If you see that, try the following on your server:

  cd /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp
  sudo mv i386 i386.old
  cd /opt
  sudo mv ltsp ltsp.old
  sudo ltsp-build-client
  sudo cp /opt/ltsp.old/i386/etc/lts.conf /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/

Clean up with:

  sudo rm -Rf /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386.old
  sudo rm -Rf /opt/ltsp.old

Make sure you are building the client for the right arch.  By default it 
targets the server processor.  Most servers are 64 bit and most clients are 32.

If you replaced the standard inetd with xinetd, it could be because xinetd is 
ignoring the numeric port entry in inetd.conf.  I had to add entries in 
services for the ports 2000 and 2001 and then put those port names in the 
inetd.conf file.  Doing that may fix the problem but subsequent client builds 
aren't going to work when the port numbers don't match.  I plan to reinstall 
the openbsd version of inetd.
