RE: creating menus
To be honest, I have to admit I tried this only with two NICs: for testing I use virtualbox, the emulated NIC is some intel, for testing with real hardware I'm using a NIC called "intel gt gigabit desktop adapter". So both are Intel and both are working.

I also tried an old onboard NIC, something called Uli (Onboard NIC of an Asrock 939Dual-SATA2 Board). But I can't say anything about it: It doesn't load anything at all. pxelinux.0 stalls already when trying to load the configfile. This is the one I mantioned above. I decided to install another intel NIC, as far as I found out, there is a bug in (g)pxelinux.0 wich prevents some NICs from booting correctly, something about IRQs and other in-deep hardware related problems I can't solve.

regarding your undi issue: As far as I understand: If undionly loads, so should the lkrn module. You can also try to load the kpxe or the kkpxe module and chain from there into menu.c32. This should leave you with a working undi stack, shouldn't it? Anyway: Can I do something to find out if the lkrn uses undi or some native driver to help you?
