You are getting inetd to re-read its configuration between changes,
aren't you?

I don't know about tftp-hpa, but a dhcpd.conf like yours with NetKit's
tftpd would be looking for the file /tftpboot/tftpboot/pxelinux.0 in
your server machine's filesystem.  Try configuring your DHCP client to
request `pxelinux.0' using the filename only.
