You don't need the '/' preceeding the directory however it may not cause a
problem. The directory can be dependent on your dhcp server configuration.
What does your dhcpd.conf look like? In my configuration I have 'filename' set
to '/pxe/pxelinux.0' and my tftp root is /tftpboot. I specify all my files
within pxelinux.cfg/default 'relative' to '/tftpboot/pxe/'
