I'm setting up a network with 8 eMacs(new) that I want to netboot over an airport extreme. The server is handling the dhcp. When they netboot the screen displays in B&W and is tiny and jarbled. W T F!? I tried setting up a new netboot image - same thing happens. Even when I hook the eMacs up through the switch it's jacked up. I'm pulling my hair out here. Oh, and get this, I call Apple tech support and they don't support eMac netboots over Airport. Perfect. Any ideas? Much appreciated.

eMac, netboot, airport

Yes, 10.3 server. It will netboot, it's just that the screen is all funky.
Any ideas?
