Did you push the "Setup Network Boot" button on the same window before you started collecting addresses? If this does not work, you can try making a boot CD if your nodes have CD drives.
OSCAR's setup more or less assumes that your nodes are networked in such a way that the first DHCP server they can see is the OSCAR head node. If you aren't sure if this is true, try isolating the cluster from the outside network and try network booting again. Also double check and make sure the firewall on the head node is turned off and that there is a working network between your nodes and the head node. I occasionally forget to turn the switch power on, and silly things like that myself. If you want to post a zipped version of your oscarinstall.log file it might be helpful.
