Naresh,
As we spoke of last evening in IRC I've updated my TFTP HowTo with some
useful debugging information and other warnings. If you were to follow
this HowTo to the letter I can't see you having any trouble as I have
tested it over and over again.
So perhaps after you get the hang of tftp/rarpd booting you can do a
SUSE install. For now, this way is tested and works for me.

I'm doing this install on a lan over a SMC 8 port switch. I've never
tested my instructions with a crossover. You'll have to pay special
attention to your subnet masking as being on the same segment matters.
Good luck.
