[Casper] Snow Leopard Netboot NBI for Casper Imaging

Hi-

I've also been experimenting with this.  I made a netboot image with system image utility off of a partition that had the Casper Imaging app in it.  I made sure to select the image as "diskless" so that it can unmount and apply the image to it successfully.  This seems to have worked, but I'm running into other issues (that I'm not sure are related to this method or not).  Maybe that'll get you farther.

I have been trying to create a new .nbi boot image for Casper 7.1 for
imaging.
Using the Resource Kit, I have been unsuccessful using Snow Leopard as
the base OS.
What I have tried, was to create a Netboot image using System Image
utility, and have my OS auto login as root, and launch Casper Imaging.

When I do this, I get some sort of a dyld error complaining that the
cache was built on a different system, and then Casper imaging quits
and restarts in an infinite loop!

What would be the best practice for getting this new netboot image
accomplished?

Thanks!
