Thanks

The problem is that there are some versions of Etherboot that don't pass
the kernel
commandline options properly. I think it has to do with using a

No, the bios only tells me the slot and IRQ.

Horst,
Could you find out the PCI Device and Vendor ID numbers?
Some bios implementations will display that information as part of the
bootup sequence.
Or, if you could put that network card in a machine with a hard drive,
do a lspci -n
and send me the results. Maybe it just isn't in the n
