SO you are then working with PCI8029 card and not generally available
8039 ISA cards. In that case the quotes will have to there to comment
out option lines. This is also what Dan Bo has mentioned in his post to
this thread. Personally I have only come across ISA 8039 cards (or am I
confusing with 8029??? --- need to rip open a few boxes and confirm ;-0
)
The lines need to working only for ISA cards.

Yes LTSP makes a example configuration for dhcpd and places two three
"example" workstation sections to be used for creating newer sections
for workstations.
Personally therefore I never use ws001 but start my workstations from
number ws011. Editing dhcpd.conf later on I do not have to hunt for
lines to copy paste.
