looks like it would, though i haven't tested it. it's called from the
initramfs, when using NBD+squashfs+aufs for the root filesystem (which is not
the default on Debian):

  (echo "get ${tftpath}/lts.conf"|tftp ${ROOTSERVER} >/dev/null 2>&1)

i would probably prefer 'tftp-hpa | tftp' for ltsp-client-core, just to
maintain consistancy with older versions and the preferred alternative.

they look pretty compatible- i wonder if tftp-hpa shouldn't provide "tftp" as
well?

live well,
