The Etherboot disk works, but the Linux boot fails. I have a SMC1211 in my server and another in a node. The server uses the 8139too driver. I boot the node with an Etherboot disk with a 1211 driver. (The 8139 driver didn't work on the node. I assume there are important differences between the 8319, 8139too, and 1211 drivers.) The node will boot and grab an IP. The problem is that, as Linux begins to boot, it seems to be trying to use the 3c5x driver instead of the 8139too or 1211 driver. As a result, it looses network connectivity and complains that the NFS is unavailable.
How do I make the node use the 8139too driver? _______________________________________________ Oscar-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/oscar-users
