The good people at IRC #ltsp helped me solve the problem

here's what I did to get PXE boot to work with the marvell/sky2 driver

   1. sudo nano /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/initramfs-tools/modules and add "sky2"
   2. sudo nano /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions and
      add "sky2" at the end of this line:

          r8169 s2io sis900 skge slhc smc911x starfire sky2 \

   3. sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 update-initramfs -u
   4. sudo ltsp-update-kernels
   5. and problem solved!
