why use tftp?

I usually do it with debootstrap, but it might be easier for you to
start with HVM then convert to PV guest if necessary. Something like
this for jaunty (start reading from "Install Ubuntu Karmic Koala Sever
in HVM DomU")

http://bderzhavets.wordpress.com/2009/11/22/setup-ubuntu-9-10-server-pv-domu-at-xen-3-4-1-dom0-2-6-31-6-pvops-kernel-on-top-of-fedora-12/

Ubuntu isn't exactly the easiest OS to run as PV domU, so if you just
want to learn I suggest you start with RHEL/Centos domU, created with
virt-install/virt-manager, using http install.
