bootpd runs from inetd and only stays up if it's receiving requests. After a 
specified amount of time of no requests it will exit. This isn't a problem as 
inetd will fire up a new one if needed.

I would make sure that tftpd is doing the right thing. You can test your tftpd 
setup by trying to download the lifimage yourself using the tftp client 
program.

bootpd and tftpd are pretty good about writing to syslog too, so check there 
for errors.

HTH,
