I would have expect

| Oct 19 09:38:19 srv1 in.tftpd[20827]: RRQ from XXX.XX.201.226 filename centos-5/i386/initrd.img

(no slash prefixed to centos)

As I see it, does the new hardware not boot with the very same setup
as previous hardware did.
And it is indeed interresting to known why the new computer doesn't boot
the same way as other computers did. 
First thing I would do, is netbooting an "old" computer to check the
server side setup.



I hope that this posting did help.
