Populate the tftpd server

This will populate the TFTP server with the Debian Etch and Ubuntu Gutsy boot loaders.

Debian (Etch)

 wget -c http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/dists/etch/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz -O /var/lib/tftpboot/etch-netboot.tar.gz
 cd /var/lib/tftpboot
 tar zxvf etch-netboot.tar.gz
 mv debian-installer etch-installer

Ubuntu (Gutsy)

 wget -c http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz -O /var/lib/tftpboot/gutsy-netboot.tar.gz
 cd /var/lib/tftpboot
 tar zxvf gutsy-netboot.tar.gz
 mv ubuntu-installer gutsy-installer

When these commands have been completed we'll have the following structure:

 tree /var/lib/tftpboot/

Sample
