hwsetup uses data from /etc and /proc to determine what to load. To find
out what config files it uses as configured on your system (if you do
not have the src):
strings /sbin/hwsetup|grep "[^/]/[^/]"|sort|les
Most likely there is some garbage setup left in /etc/sysconfig/netcard ,
/usr/share/hwdata/pcitable , /usr/share/misc/pci.ids etc. which may be
left over from when someone generated the nfs bootable image on a
different system (just making an educated guess here). Try to search
these files with the PCI id of your card. Also hwsetup calls modprobe
and that may override using data from /etc/modules.devfs
/etc/modules.conf /etc/modprobe.devfs /etc/modprobe.conf .
If I'd be you I'd try to put in an ATAPI drive and boot from a standard
Knoppix cd on one of the machines. If that works ok start looking for
differences in the config files mentioned above. If it does not work
look on the net for info in incompatible 3c59x cards. I remember there
was something in etherboot or netboot about this once. I do not use a
3c59x so I do not know.
