David told you how. You have to configure a bootp section for your STAMP
board in /etc/dhcpd.conf. You also have to put the kernel image the STAMP
board will boot in a place where DHCP can feed it to the board. NetLlama 
even wrote a Step for PXE boot, which is darn close to what you want to 
do here. See http://www.linux-sxs.org/internet_serving/pxeboot.html. You
can probably start at step 3).
