[K12OSN] Using clients' network boot BIOS option

Machines of the past few years usually have an option in their BIOS to boot from the
LAN. But whenever I've tried using it with a K12LTSTP server, it doesn't work, the
client doesn't boot from the server. Should this work? Do I have to add something to
lts.conf? I generally favor boot floppies, but I've got one machine that starts to boot
from the floppy but then the screen goes grey and I get a line of garbage characters in
the middle of the screen. So, I need an alternative way to at least test booting. This
machine has a boot from lan option, but like all the others I've tried, it doesn't seem
to work.
