Well, before actually putting etherboot code into the bios
you should try to switch your bios to boot "other" hardware,
so it will look on a couple of adresses to find 0x55 0xAA
(or something, you can easily proof by googling a bit, eg
http://www.google.de/search?hl=de&q=etherboot+%2255+AA%22&btnG=Suche&meta=
should be a start)

Check that the very first 2 bytes of your NIC-ROM contain
are 55 AA.

Then try like Anselm told you, fetch the dos-program,
boot dos, start the dos-program and set the features
of the NIC, eg. activate ROM-Booting.


HTH,
Thomas
