The one in the tftp directory is used.


Do you use an DHCP gateway or DHCP forwarding? There were problems
with older versions of ipconfig in the initrd, which did not work when
using a DHCP gateway. Search the mail archive for this.

And check if you can see the DHCP request (and answers) on your install server
