A good trick that helped me is first verify that tftp works on the
tftp server.  IE. from the server type,
"tftp sun"
"get /tmp/foo /tmp/foo1"
"put /tmp/foo1 /tmp/foo"

When this works, then start playing with the cisco boot, ...

A common mistake is not to enable tftp in /etc/inet.conf
which should read something like the following

tftp    dgram   udp     wait    bin     /etc/tftpd      tftpd

Be sure and wake up inetd to this fact - kill -1 ...
