Need help getting LTSP working

Thanks for all your responses guys,

I had gotten LTSP to work right after I sent the message. 

The problem was that the ubuntu ftp server chroots everything to 
/var/lib/tftpboot/
(and I knew that), either I wasnt reading the ubuntuLTSP wiki or it was not 
clear on 
that you dont need to add /var/lib/tftpboot/ to the beginning of the kernel 
image line

So that was the one thing that did it.

oddly enough though on a warty install it worked even with the 
/var/lib/tftpdboot added in

strange.

but all is good and I have 3 slim PII IBM desktops connected to a P4 Dell 
with 512 ram working very nicely. (im at home right now or else I would give 
more specs.)

I will probably post my dhcpd.conf file for anyone who is interested.

thanks again for all your help. 

Luis
