Have you experimented with other types of tftpd? There is an implemetation
that works fine for us on the netboot homepage:

http://harlie.han.de/~gero/netboot/files/tftpd.tar.gz

But it has a problem with termination. When the transfer is interupted the
demon doesnt exit, so you have to kill it manually after a while or you
will have a lot of them running and jamming filetables and memory.

Or use the intel tftpd. Its a standalone tftpd (not invoked by inetd but
started from the prompt).

Ciao,
