Ok - having added the -s (per John) I've now added an initial / :

kotov:~# grep tftp /etc/inetd.conf | grep -v ^#
tftp           dgram   udp     wait    root  /usr/sbin/tcpd    
in.tftpd  -vvvvvv -s /var/lib/tftpboot
kotov:~# grep pxe /etc/dhcpd.conf
                filename "/pxelinux.0";

Same symptoms.

Syslog now says:

May 10 18:09:20 kotov in.tftpd[27159]: RRQ from 192.168.1.21 filename
/pxelinux.0

etc etc
