+9I'd like to be able to Netboot around 50 machines at a time but for some reason we can't boot more than 11 at a time. Sometimes we boot a few more than 11 but never more than 13. 11 seems to be the norm. When we attempt to boot more than 11 it looks like their going to work but then they eventually just reboot to the internal HD. Any ideas?

@wabit I saw you made another post and they replied with pretty much what I was going to say. The modified rc.netboot made with AutoCasperNBI helps. I also think part of the issue was with our network speeds. I originally posted this when I was at my old job. The network there was much slower. It took about 30 mins or more to image a single computer. At my new job it only takes about 5 mins to image. I think the network speed probably had something to do with it too.
I'm going to mark this post as resolved. Hopefully you can get it straightened out in your other post. Best of luck to you!
