Are you looking for NICs that can boot via the NIC using iSCSI or are
you looking for a flash utility that actually can flash the EEPROM?  We
have NICs today that boot via iSCSI.  You can even install RHEL5 and
SLES10 via those NICs.

Let us know.


Cheers,
John

Subject: [E1000-devel] flash firmware on PRO/1000 PT from Linux?

Is there a way to flash the boot ROM and set up iSCSI remote boot on the
Intel PRO/1000 PT (Dual/Quad) card from Linux?  I have done quite a bit
of
searching and all of the tools I have found so far have been for Windows
or
DOS.  Also, is there any other flashable firmware on these Intel
ethernet
cards?  I am trying to support firware updates for a bunch of components
in
our servers directly from Linux since we don't want to have to boot
Windows
or DOS from these systems.

Thanks,
Brandon
