Cool thanks! Maybe we can get that integrated as part of the ltsp-core ebuild. It looks like mostly placement of files and a touch of dhcpd.conf config which already installs changes I think. You can submit the enhancement to bugs.gentoo.org and make Andres Toomsalu <frame [at] pfm. ee> the person you send it to as he's the one that has the entries in the ChangeLog and if memory serves me right is the original ltsp-core ebuild creator or close to it.
I just realized that he's got a 3.0.9 version masked at the moment. The changelog says it's a pointless upgrade though simply because it just adds new distro support on 3.0.7.

lol, we just use a bunch of ne2000 NICs because they were laying around. If I was going to buy I'd get the RTL8139s for something like $8 or less. I'm still amazed how cheap a NIC can be.

don't know how much we paid for the davicom's, couldn't be more then $10.

Nope, I have almost all ISA NICs and that's PXE stuff right? It wouldn't do anything for me would it, or am I misunderstanding the purpose?

Hey, I'm having the same problem, and I don't understand what you mean by disabling protocols 3 and 4 from the kernel config?!
My clienten can boot at first attempt, but I have to restart the server (nfs and others probably) beforce the thin client can connect again..
My log file shows the same as yours...
