Remote Installation Image

[Leon]

Hello,

i have some pcs with intel e100b and e1000 nics and want to boot these pcs
over net. i just don't use microsoft ris server. i configured my microsoft
dhcp server for receiving and sending bootp and pxe packets from and to
client as described in windows help files for the specific operating system.
if i use the 3com nic, so there is no problem. it works perfectly. but if i
use these intel nics, so i got some problems. the intel nics begins to
download the boot image, but they all are staying (frozen) by 241 KBytes and
nothing happens after that. I get also no more error messages from the
system. the tftp server is also running on backgroug. Can anyone give me
some help.

Great Thanx

Leon

Try grabbing the intel nics from my site, they should get you up to a 32 bit
environment. If they don't work, I just tested some 1000 drivers that work,
they just aren't on the site yet:

What you need to do is get the newest intel nic card
drivers extract them to a folder and then copy all the
dll's and inf files to the i386 of you flat file cd based
image. It will overwrite some files but it will be ok. I
had the same problem on a batch of dell comps. It should
work then.
