Radek,

I'm guessing that the card just isn't listed in the ltsp niclist file 
that is inside the initramfs.
So, it doesn't get auto detected.

The way to fix that is to pass the kernel module that should be used for 
that card, on the kernel command line.

The module you need to use is probably e1000, so you'd need to pass 
'NIC=e1000' via the pxelinux config file.

Take a look at:

http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/KernelOptions#PXE

That should give you a clue where to specify the option.


posdrawiam,
Jim McQuillan
