Hmm...it shouldn't matter what your thin client's IP address is, 
provided that you're getting an IP address on that subnet.  Another 
possibility is that there's a second DHCP server on that subnet that 
isn't configured for the LTSP boot stuff.

Are you sure you don't have any other DHCP servers on that subnet?

Also, any way that you can give us the boot messages, even if you have 
to hand-type them in yourself, so we can see what's happening before the 
failure?

Thx,
