Well this is the next problem, how to boot from ethernet card ? I read in the list about this but is no clear for me
somebody says to enable the chip using some software etc etc. But how the bios of the PC knows about boot from the program in the rom ? Think in 486 or 586 PCS without booting from network in his setup. In other hand if I can't boot easy from the card , the floopy is the Best. What is it for the rom boot in question ? thanks Bruno Luciani El Dom 15 Jun 2003 01:42, escribi�: > Bruno Luciani wrote: > > I am ready to burn my own rom > > > > but : which is the correct type of chip for my card ? > > > > > > the rom is a rtl8139 10ec rom > > > > It's correct to use a 27c128 eprom chip ? > > > > which time access is necesary: 120ms may be ? > > Hi there. > > By coincidence, I just did this last night.
