The sun4c netboot problem (you may have already tried this):  sun4c's
actually try to get a file named /tftpboot/XXXXXXXX.SUN4C, and since tftp is
listed as '-s /tftpboot' in inetd.conf (effectively chroot()ing to that
directory), you need to make a symlink there: 

% cd /tftpboot
% ln -s . tftpboot

(and now /tftpboot/tftpboot is a symlink to /tftpboot/.).
