|Subject: [Ltsp-discuss] TFTP error 1 file not found 3c509
|
|I was frustrated trying to get a built-in 3c509 isa nic to net boot on a Dell
|GXM133 workstation. The solution was:
|
|1. Download 3Com's DOS nic utility
|2. Use it to disable isa plug-n-play on the card and assign an irq and port to
|the nic
|3. Set option-128, option-129 in the workstation setup in dhcpd.conf file
|4. Restart dhcpd
|
Concerning the 3c509, in the 1999 edition (the latest I could find) of the
Ethernet-HOWTO it is stated that the card also has to be set to use either the
UTP (RJ45) or the AUI or the BNC (RG58) media, _not_ the AUTO selection, since
the Linux driver is not yet capable of automatically selecting what kind of
cable the card has attached.
to quote the HOWTO:
3c509B users should use either the supplied DOS utility to disable the
plug and play support, and to set the output media to what they
require. The linux driver currently does not support the Autodetect
media setting, so you have to select 10Base-T or 10Base-2 or AUI.
Note that to turn off PnP entirely, you should do a 3C5X9CFG
/PNP:DISABLE and then follow that with a hard reset to ensure that it
takes effect.
