That would tend to rule out the network driver then.

A couple more suggestions:

Remove the extra ISOs.  You mention that you put all 9 in there.  I don't
recall if it matters, but you might try removing all but the 4 needed for
install.

Double check permissions on the ISO files.

It's been too long since I set mine up (and it is in a WBEL box), but my
NFS export has the "no_subtree_check" option.  I seem to recall having
issues until I added it.
