hi robinsmidsrod

I really was downloaded ipxe.iso from http://www.ipxe.org

i used syslinux to maked a boot usbdisk

the syslinux.cfg The contents are as follows

LABEL boot from ipxe
LINUX memdisk
INITRD /ipxe.iso
APPEND iso raw


i Used this usbdisk in guide three computer

1--the one, motherboard is gigabyte g41 , integration a rtl811c network card.

used this usbdisk boot is ok


2--the other one, motherboard is asus h61 , integration a Atheros AR8151 network card .

used this usbdisk boot , show the message is "no more network devies"

this PCI vendor/device ID for the card is "PCI\VEN_1969&DEV_1083&SUBSYS_E0001458&REV_C0\4&3A0400F3&0&00E1"

this id message from windows xp Device manager


3--the last one is imac a1419 integration a "broadcom netxtreme gigabit ethernet" network card

used this usbdisk boot , show the message is "no more network devies"

this PCI vendor/device ID for the card is "PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_1686&SUBSYS_0110106B&REV_01"
