Odd.
Not seeing that at all.
Have deployed it to a few sites now.
Can you recreate the NBI & check "create restorable dmg" then restore that to a external disk & boot off of that? Hopefully the issue reoccurs & we can have a look at the logs.
Regards,
Ben.

So upon Recreating the NBI, the new one works. They are identical, but if I boot to one the behavior exists and if I boot to the other it's fine. Corruption maybe? Either way, I'm technically resolved. Let me know if you want me to gather any info from the bad nbi before I trash it.
I can confirm this issue. I have tried to build 10.10.5 NBIs and 10.11.6 NBIs, both with Casper Imaging 9.93. Confirmed for multiple customers. One customer doesn't either work after building six NBIs. The OS DMGs are all built with AutoDMG and were definitely working when creating previous images.
Please let me know if I should provide any logs for you.
Hi @hkabik & @entusdictus,
In the NBI folder, do you have the .restorable.dmg? (on the NBI Server).
Yes, the restorable.dmg is in the NBI folder in my case.
@entusdictus Remove it.. then it'll work.
I this: https://github.com/macmule/AutoCasperNBI/issues/87 would stop this happening again.
The NetBoot.restorable.dmg is for disk media, not for NetBoot.
Hi all,
Please test this pre-release of AutoCasperNBI
I have restructured the folders that AutoCasperNBI puts items into, to avoid this issue in the future:
The restorable.dmg should only be for removable media.
@macmule: works perfect, thanks! strange issue because we used to let the .restorable.dmg in the NBI folder for several releases now...
@entusdictus it shouldn't be in there on the NBI server.. i'm guessing you're using a NetSUS or something other an Apple's NetBoot server?
They don't read the NBImageInfo.plist to get the actual DMG, just grep/awk/cut to get an DMG.
But, awesome this is fixed. Closing off.
