RE: [Etherboot-developers] Sundance Driver Status

I think the problem may be in the linux driver of the ltsp code.  I did
the following:

1) Added a 3c905 with 5.0 boot rom to download the ltsp kernel
2) modified the NIC= for the 3c905 to be NIC=sundance
3) the client boots with the 3c905 EB driver and downloads the ltsp
kernel
4) the linux driver loads and it loads the sundance module.
5) The client stops trying to mount the root partition.

So I am thinking that the problem is in the ltsp initialization of
sundance driver or the linux driver itself.

What do you think?  Is this a valid way to validate that the problem is
probably not in the etherboot driver?
