Hi,

I have an OSX Server (10.4.x) configured to deploy various NetInstall images over NFS).

I have a standard Netboot image which is set as the default image, so pressing N on startup means that it will boot up off whatever image is set as teh default. Then when booted off the network system, I go to the startup disk control panel in System Prefereces and then browse the available netinstall images dependant on whether I want to deploy an system update from Panther to Tiger or whether I want to perform a NetRestore.

Is there no other way to browse and choose a network image ?
When you hold the alt key on startup it gives you available startup disks but only offers the Netboot icon and not the various netinstall images etc that are served by the NetBoot server.

Any confirmation of this or alternative options welcome !!

Many thanks in advance.
 
I believe the Startup Disk pref pane should give you all of the available netboot images that are available for that particular machine to choose from.
