I'm using an RTL8185L desktop wireless PCI card (lspci says: rev 20),
10ec:8185. I used a rom-o-matic ISO, selected rtl8185, and placed this script
in the "Embedded Script" field at the bottom:
#!gpxe
set net0/ssid MYAP
set net0/key MYPSWORD
autoboot
I tried many rom-o-matic combos, some with all drivers, some with no embedded
script, but this seems to work the best. IWLIST shows my AP. IWSTAT shows my AP
and connection quality. In IRC I did this:
<me1user> gpxebot: lspci 10ec:8185
<gpxebot> rtl8185
I also used the command line (ctrl-B) and typed:
set net0/ssid MYAP
set net0/key MYPSWORD
dhcp net0
autoboot
However, I keep getting the below text with the cmd line and the ISO files. B
and C always show up and A only shows up sometimes and I don't recall the order
used when it doesn't show:
A) Link status: The socket is not connected (0x38086001)
B) No filename or root path specified
C) No more network devices
The other thing I should note is that I'm booting via PXE using a wireless
router in client bridge mode (makes my 8139 NIC 'seem' like a wifi card) - I
haven't yet tried it with a CD:
label gPXE8185
menu label gPXE8185
kernel boot/gpxe8185/RTL8185.KRN
append initrd=boot/gpxe8185/ISOLINUX.BIN
Any ideas on a solution? Do I need try a different card? I bought 2 for this
purpose so far. Thanks, --c7aff
(I have another RTL8185L that says rev B1 on the card but it said 'Not
Supported' when I tried it in gPXE command line)
