Apple Netboot for OS9 is identical to the NetBoot for Mac OS 9 software included with Mac OS X Server 10.2 (Jaguar).
Early NetBoot capable Macintoshes will not be able to use the feature of obtaining IP addresses from a DHCP server.
Newer Macintoshes are all NetBoot capable, although some will need the latest Open Firmware Update to use DHCP. You can obtain the Open Firmware Update atwww.apple.com/support.
You should run the proper Update on all Macintoshes you plan to use for NetBoot.
Refer to the Admin Guide.pdf on the Mac OS X Server CD for more detailed information about this new feature of NetBoot and for system requirements for yourNetBoot client machines.
You must install the NetBoot client image provided on this CD.
Earlier or updated versions will not have the necessary modifications for the newer NetBoot features.
The NetBoot client image contains a default user that allows you to get to the finder when aMacintosh Manager Sever can't be found.
The default user name is NBUser with the password netboot.
