I don't know,  I haven't got them yet.  What I have are machines with pci nics 
with the empty socket for a boot rom.  I imagine I can get whatever works.  I 
just nned to know what works.  Most of the cards are a flavour of DLINK (528s 
or 538s)

a couple of my machines with on board nics don't have PXE but do have rpl-rom, 
but these don't work, or I haven't figured out how to make them work.  If I 
can't I guess I will have to buy pci nics and get boot roms for them and 
disable the on-board nics.

Is a boot-rom chip and boot rom chip?  I mean will any boot rom fit in a nic's 
empty socket?

Is etherboot a type or brand of boot rom?  How to I program it?  Or is that 
automatic?

thanks for the smart answers to dumb questions
