In addition to Ken Yap's comments, You should make sure that
/local/tftpboot/iX-Terminal/romeo/bootImage really exists &
is world-readable.
tftpd is not prepending something to the path name (e.g., is
not trying to access /tftpboot/local/tftpboot/...)
that tftpd's home directory is set to /local/tftpboot.
The following is from SunOS' tftpd manual. Even if your NFS server is
not SunOS, it might still apply.
/usr/etc/in.tftpd [-s] [ homedir ]
Before responding to a request, the server attempts to
change its current directory to homedir; the default value
is /tftpboot.
-s Secure. When specified, the directory change must
succeed; and the daemon also changes its root directory
to homedir. This option is set in the default
/etc/inetd.conf file.
The use of tftp does not require an account or password
on the remote system. Due to the lack of authentica-
tion information, tftpd will allow only publicly read-
able files to be accessed...
