I've used Cobbler for some time know and I never found the Netboot flag to be triggered to easily. I do have a problem with something related. I would really like the option that makes the default profiles do not start a kickstart install, but just start a unscripted, normal install. This is to prevent of normal users (who don't know Cobbler) to choose, what looks like a distribution, to them but get something that just installs something without the option for them to choose whats get installed. And ever worse might remove partitions they like to keep.
