Casper Imaging crashing all the time since JSS has moved to VM

We moved our JSS to a VM last week (used to be on a Mac Mini) and now Casper Imaging / NetBoot crashes all the time.

The JSS is working fine now in the VM environment, and the JSS does have the Mac Mini's address as a DP.

Casper imaging is pointing to and connecting to the new VM IP address / DNS name.

Client OS X machine can netboot, opens Casper Imaging at login, select image etc.

Get to Performing Block Copy... crash, hang

Thx

It worked, no more crashing. Replace the rc.netboot file with the one from the posted thread.

Note: when you download the file, is it named: rc.netboot.sh (shell script), but its name must be, rc.netboot, or this whole thing does not work. Works great, no more crashes. You even see the little RAM disk icon on the desktop.
