If you look at the rom files downloadable from Broadcom, maybe they are all the same size. Try to pad the ipxe rom file null bytes until you reach the same size. I believe there is a tutorial on how to do this on the main ipxe site, or possibly buried somewhere on the old etherboot wiki.

Do you have any more info on this procedure? I can't find it with a google search.

I believe the padimg.pl script included in the ipxe codebase should help you out. See http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.ipxe.devel/365 for details.

I decided that this was starting to take up waaaay to much time so I switched to the Intel cards. Wow, what a difference. Everything just worked first time.

I can't figure out how to mount my freenas extent, but that's another thread for when I've lost the very last hair.
