[K12OSN] clients not pickup kernel, stop at /lts/vmlinuz.ltsp

Hung,

That looks like a firewall is blocking tftp or the service is not
running from xinetd.

Check that "disabled = off" is set in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp

and

try the iptables command:

/sbin/iptables -i eth0 -j ACCEPT

where eth0 is the interface where the clients are attaching.

You can just open up UDP port 69 to allow tftp but I suspect that the
next message will be about a failed nfs mount :)
