If multiple network interfaces are listed, it’s likely that only one of the interfaces is
on the same subnet as your Xserve. If you’re not sure which interface is on the same
subnet, open Network Utility (located in /Applications/Utilities/) on your NetBoot
server and your Xserve. In the Info pane, choose different network interfaces on the
NetBoot server and your Xserve and compare the IP Address fields. Usually, computers
are on the same subnet if their IP addresses start with same numbers (for example,
they both start with 192.168.2).

Deleting the AXD NetBoot Image
You can’t use System Image Utility to delete the AXD NetBoot image. Instead, you
must delete the AXD NetBoot image in the NetBoot image folder, which is located at:
/Volumes/volumename/Library/NetBoot/NetBootSP#
Replace volumename with the name of the volume that you’re installing the AXD
NetBoot image onto. The number (#) varies depending on whether you’re using several
NetBoot volumes. If you’re using only one NetBoot volume, the AXD NetBoot image
is located in NetBootSP0. If you’re using several NetBoot volumes, the AXD NetBoot
image may be located in another folder (for example, NetBootSP1, NetBootSP4, or
NetBootSP11).
To delete the AXD NetBoot image:
Open the Finder and delete AXD.nbi from the NetBoot image folder.
