HP z400 (no network no Gigabit link NIC=BCM5764m)

[Torgeir]

Update!

From the ipxe-devel mailing list (Brandon Penglase):

Code:

I am testing with BCM5764M and while iPXE will function properly on

100Mbit, it fails on DHCP still on a gigabit link. This behaviour is
the same as before this commit.
Thanks Kevin and all others who are working on this. I can provide
any data that may help with resolving this issue.

I found out the same problem exist with my HP z400. When I was testing my lab-network I was using an old 100Mbit switch. Thats why it was working on my lab-network and not on our company network

I put the same old 100Mbit between our company network and our z400, got straight through (link up).

This was with the ipxe.pxe

Kevin Tran replyed back with this:

Code:

Hi Brandon,
We were able to reproduce the issue you reported on BCM5764m.  We already resolved this.   I will send you the fixes on other e-mail.  Once you confirm that your issue is fixed, we will submit the changes.

Thanks!

So I am very eager to try this out with our z400.
