Installing 80 workstations with PXE

Hi all. I've setup a PXE server which runs perfectly. The installation
starts unattendent and all I have to do, is reboot the pc to log into Fedora
Core 4.

However, when I start the installation on more than one pc at a time (I have
80 installations to
make), the pc's obtain their IP address from DHCP, load the kernel into
memory, load the kickstart file and when they look for the ISO file (I
guess) it says: Unable to mount NFS Share.

But remember, one pc at a time, it work perfectly.

Here is the DHCP.conf file:

ddns-update-style interim;
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.0.10 192.168.0.254;
default-lease-time 3600;
max-lease-time 4800;
option routers 192.168.0.2;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.2;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option domain-name "l.pxeserver.com";
option time-offset -7;
option ntp-servers 192.168.0.2;
option netbios-name-servers 192.168.0.2;
filename "pxelinux.0";
}


Well, any idea?
