I have my motherboard working now and the PXE does function,
but the tftp transfer is very slow. I have another box that is an older
mother board and boots from a floppy. It boots quickly. The newer
board has a 100Mb full-duplex lan built in; the older has a 100Mb
card that may be full-duplex, I'm not sure.
 
The newer system when booting (very slowly) pauses a long time
doing the pivot_root and mounting other filesystems.
 
Both boards are set up for local apps, local swap, and no x.
 
I know I'm leaving stuff out of this message. What other data must
I include? Does this problem seem familiar to anyone?
 
Mike
