Etherboot: pkg-descr gives wrong instructions !

2004-10-13 Thread Rob 
etherboot version: 5.2.4
Hi,
The instructions for creating bootup floppy for
diskless PCs in ports/net/etherboot/pkg-descr
is very wrong.
The files boot1a.bin device.zrom do not even exist!
Instead the following procedure worked for me:
  # cd /usr/ports/net/etherboot
  # make patch
  # cd work/etherboot-5.2.4/src
  # gmake bin/device.dsk
  # dd if=bin/device.dsk of=/dev/fd0c bs=512 conv=sync
I do not understand why I have to use 'gmake' instead
of the normal 'make' at line 4; 'make' ends here with
an error:
  Makefile, line 6: Could not find arch//Config
  Makefile.main, line 212: Could not find arch//Makefile
  make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
The list for device names can be seen by doing:
# ( cd drivers/net ; ls *.c | sed 's/\.c//' )
With etherboot 5.2.4, the list is:
  3c509 eepro pcnet32
  3c515 eepro100  prism2smc9000
  3c595 epic100   prism2_pcisundance
  3c90x forcedeth prism2_plxtg3
  cs89x0lance r8169 tlan
  davicom   natsemi   rtl8139   tulip
  depca ns83820   sis900via-rhine
  e1000 ns8390sk_g16w89c840
Could somebody please fix this?
Regards,
Rob.
