The GX-280 and SX-280's I use have Intel cards so this may or may not be useful.
1) I think the new 2.6.x kernel in LTSP 4.1.1 supports the tg cards
(please correct me if I am wrong Jim) 2) You probably already know this but in the Dell BIOS there are three
settings for the NICs. "Off", "On" and "On w/ PXE" Be sure to it is
set to "On w/ PXE." 3) Also in the BIOS you need to enable the Network card as a boot
device. I have found that you need to set #2 above first, reboot
*then* set the NIC as a boot device. Setting them both at once
doesn't always work for some reason. 4) Also, check the AGP aperture size setting in the BIOS. The machines
I have come set at just 1Mb, which isn't enough to do anything
useful.

Hi : I have tried to use an GX-280, maybe SX-280 uses the same GB Interface card than GX-280, tg3, and this one is not supported by LTSP.

Hello,
Has anyone had experience using Fedora 3 and LTSP booting a Dell SX280 through PXE that could offer some advice?
