PXES, PXE boot rom and thin clients

Gidday all.  I am attempting to convert 40+ old P133 and P166 machines
to thin clients for a windows 2003 terminal server, and possibly some
XDM logins.

All the machines will have a cheap realtek 8139 NIC with a PXE boot
rom.  I have configured BpBatch as a first stage PXE boot loader.

I have a debian linux server running DHCP and TFTP for the lan already,
and I've downloaded the various PXES files from sourceforge.

I've installed pxesconfig and pxes-base (tried both 0.6 and 0.7) but
both the RPMs and the tarball version of pxesconfig complain about this

--------------------------------------------
suspenders:/usr/src/pxesconfig-0.7# pxesconfig 
Can't locate Gnome.pm in @INC (@INC contains:

-------------------------------------------

So I'm attempting to use files out of the ISO image.  I've burned the CD
and it boots beatifully (which gives me hope!)


In the dhcp.conf I have attempted to set
	filename "vmlinuz";
but the PXE boot rom says "Too many packages", so I have to use BpBatch
as a first stage boot loader.

Also I have sent vmlinuz from BpBatch but I get messages about "could
not open kernel image" which makes me suspect I'm sending the wrong
file/s


My question - what files do I need to send to the client to boot like
the CDROM version does?
