Jim,
Thanks a lot for the path to solving the problem. Generally at the
moment new Intel cards work, but not all is clear for me. So, I used
option in dhcpd.conf:
option option-128 e4:45:74:68:00:00;
option option-129 "NIC=e1000 vga=773";
but with no effect.
So in the second step I used
/tftpboot/lts/2.4.26-ltsp-2/pxelinux.cfg/default
by
append init=/linuxrc rw root=/dev/ram0 initrd=initrd-2.4.26-ltsp-2.gz
NIC=e1000 vga=773
This second way works.
In addition I checked modules.dep and I found path for e1000.ko module.
And this force me to my doubts.
But thanks a lot again and regards,
Radek
