[Etherboot-users] Re: Support for Xircom Cardbus Ethernet II 10/100

[Matthias M. <M....@ma...>]

Hi,

I've install Mandrake 8.2 on my laptop. MDK load the nic as tulip_cb.o and
work fine.

In the source of this module I find:

"This device driver is designed for the DECchip "Tulip", Digital's
single-chip ethernet controllers for PCI.  Supported members of the family
are the 21040, 21041, 21140, 21140A, 21142, and 21143.  Similar work-alike
chips from Lite-On, Macronics, ASIX, Compex and other listed below are also
supported."

But I tried the modules dc21040, dc21041, intel21145 and also otulip, tulip
and xircomtulip from www.rom-o-matic.org. None of this work. All of them say
"No tulip adapter found"

(## sorry, now I've read the 
http://www.etherboot.org/doc/html/userman-9.html#ss9.10. Please ignore the 
next two questions ;-)
    Is there a way to combine etherboot with an known Linux-Driver? Is there a
    way to use the Linux tulip_cb.o in etherboot?

Thanks in advance
Matthias
