Post subject: | network card is not supported by Grub 0.97 |
I have two network card: Vendor id=1106 Device id=3106(rev 86) Name= D-link DFE530TX, Rev-C1 Linux uses via-rhine III to drive it. AND Vendor id=11ab Device id=4320(rev 13) Name= Marvell Linux uses skge to drive it. I am trying to make a bootable floppy by grub to use netboot and get the kernel from the network. I debugged the Grub code , it stops waiting for an ARP reply forever! Ethernet adapter has not been initialized correctly and the PCI location and function number reported by the grub is wrong!! Does anyone know of any open source project to derive etherboot/netboot drivers out of linux kernel net drivers? my email is: [email protected] Thank you to read my message. |

I guess some one didn't create a driver for your network card. Or their is something that is grub that does not pick up that hardware. I am not sure. It could be anything otherwise i'll be here all day listing everything. lol |

I hope you compiled GRUB to support both the cards - if so it may be the problem. Just compile with --enable-via-rhine and disable/unplug the Marvel card. Did you try --enable-pci-direct? Sam |
