cobbler system report --name $system_name

Take a look at the netboot line and it is probably set to false. After
you kickstart a server, it turns the netboot flag to false to keep
from accidentally rekickstarting it again.

Try:
cobbler system edit --name $system_name --netboot 1 && cobbler sync.
Then reboot the box again.

Also take a look at the file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/$mac-address
before and after the sync as it contains the boot configuration.
