Clients which do not have a via_rhine card will ignore the parameter. So it's safe to enable it for all clients. > I'd try to insert it on the PXE kernel command-line, but it's > explicitely ignored by the kernel : > ml6000 kernel: Unknown boot option `via_rhine.avoid_D3=1': ignoring > ...or implicitely, when I just add "avoid_D3=1" (ie.

In an initrd sometimes insmod is used. It accepts module options on the commandline (insmod via_rhine avoid_D3=1). If modprobe is used, specify "options via-rhine avoid_D3=1" in /etc/modprobe.conf (or a file in /etc/modprobe.d/). You must do it in the /etc/ directory which is mounted by the time modprobe is executed (so probably inside of your initrd).
