In these cases, it overwrites the serverip address as well, updating it to
that of the Dhcp server. Can you commend why DHCP will alter the serverip
address? It seems odd to me that DHCP will tell me which host that I want to
 TFTP the images from.
That's not odd at all. You can set the address of the TFTP server to
use using the "next-server" option in your dhcpd configuration file.
