Hi Krishna,

Thanks for responding... 

With the latest LTSP 3.0 kernel, there appeared to be PXE boot capability 
which by passes Etherboot stage or something and that works great. I just 
downloaded the latest version of PXE flash DOS utility from the Intel Website 
and it worked on the Intel card that previously had a flashrom on it....

However, I think that it required both, the motherboad BIOS to support network 
card booting? Or I may be mistaken.

The thing is that I have a lot of computers that may not support booting from 
network cards... or I'm probably mistaken.. I'll check it out with the Intel 
Card that I have and see if it boots from any type of motherboard...
