Actually from an initial look, it looks to be supported by the b44 module in the most recent ltsp kernel. > I built the module on the broadcom CD as per their instructions > after googling to find out howto and it works like a charm, but netboot? > Maybe the etherboot folk can help. If there is enough interest in this card it could be supported in Etherboot. These days (after spending a small fortune on NICs) I define enough interest as someone willing to send me a card).
