If you let the workstation sit for awhile, do you get any additional error
messages?
I have a similar problem booting a Dell GXM 5133 with a 3c509 isa nic
(built-in the mobo). The problem is ISA plug and play. I cannot turn off
plug & play in either the BIOS or using a jumper or switch. I have tried
altering the ltsp configs to announce the isa card, its irq and port
address, but that hasn't worked. My only solution is to disable the 3c509
nic or remove it and install a pci nic if there is a pci slot available.
