to work? been having some weird Novell problems, that almost back some horrible
nightmares.

up DHCP?

Hello there I'm new in this list, please be patient...
I have an integrated SIS900 card in a PC Chips 755LMRE mobo and I can't put
it to work with etherboot.
The soft detects the card and the link status, but doesn't seem to send any
packages afterwards, so DHCP doesn't work. (the server works f
Hi James,
I've been using SIS900 onboard NICs for a while. I just remove the
novell stuff from BIOS, and I burn the rom-o-matic .rom instead. If
you're using an AWARD modular BIOS, then you're able to do this.
You need 2 tools:
- AWARDFLASH.EXE (for DOS): With this, you are able to save

I'm trying to boot some machines using ltsp.
My ltsp server is ok, I got two machines running under it very fine.
The thing is that we got some machines with on-board network card. On linux
and windows (they have both linux and windows installed but we want also to
have ltsp on it) the network
Thank you for all your help with my
SIS900 problem, it seems to be solved.

obvious, but as 2 people already asked for it, I'm saying now that I did) :)
And yes, the network card works great with linux, using the sis900 driver.

Can you please alaborate this a bit more?
I didn't understand if you are talking about BIOS setup, linux or ltsp, I got
a bit confused I assume, sorry, I just don't have much in-deep knowledge
about network. (you know, I'm a mandrake user, nice front-ends for
configureing things).
Anyway, I can
