I've been using here CNET PRO/200 PCI NIC (Davicom 9102 and an983b) and m27c512 EPROM without any problem. > 2. How can we burn the etherboot image to its EPROM? Download the etherboot image of your NIC from the ROM-O-MATIC site <http://www.rom-o-matic.net/> and load it using an EPROM programmer. Of course, you need to put into the EPROM socket of your EPROM programmer your EPROM to where you will load your Etherboot image. Good luck! --- MARVIN T.
