May i suggest you to use the kano pxe server
(http://www.kano.org.uk/projects/pxe/)
if you are using real pxe system (like 3com & Intanium 2) or just the
isc dhcp using the pxe capability (intel boards).

I'm currently using pxelinux(http://syslinux.zytor.com/pxe.php) as
bootstrap for x86 arch & of course elilo for itanium 2.
Kano needs a patch for itanium2 but i will release the patch today.

If you need a documentation about pxe (with examples) read
