Hi Thomas, I have started testing your code on a HP Z800 Workstation. The network card is listed under Linux as "Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5764M Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 10)" (14e4:1684). The latest code i got by doing a "git clone -b tg3 git:// git.etherboot.org/people/meteger/gpxe.git". If I use the following make line: make clean ; make -j 10 DEBUG=tg3_main,tg3_hw,tg3_phy EMBEDDED_IMAGE=~/disk-images/tftp.gpxe ,then I get the following output: ---------------------------------------------------- Link is down ok
gPXE 1.0.1+ -- Open Source Boot Firmware -- http://etherboot.org Features: AoE HTTP iSCSI DNS TFTP bzImage COMBOOT ELF Multiboot PXE PXEXT Link is down Waiting for link-up on net0...Link is up at 1000 Mbps, full duplex Flow control is off for TX and off for RX ok DHCP (net0 00:1f:29:05:2b:9a)................ Connection timed out (0x4c106035) Could not configure net0: Connection timed out (0x4c106035) Could not configure any interface. -------------------------------------------------------- To me it looks like packet loss but Linux has no problems with the card at the 2.6.38 kernel level. Is there any debug options I can use to get more info? btw, if you didn't get my mail earlier, the embedded script problem I had earlier was caused by a missing "#!gpxe" header. Without it, the script is not recognized. br, Quinn Plattel On Fri, Jan 20, 2012 at 8:59 AM, Quinn Plattel <qie...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Thomas, > > I found my problem as I mentioned on the list earlier.
