_before_ getting that message, look in the bios. there should be some mention of net-boot and/or PXE. assuming you have integrated net, of course. bootable add-in NICs are still pretty hit-or-miss, I think. > btw does that 'boot over network means i need a 16 node hub for 100 mbit and > connect all the machines besides the quadrics network also to 100 mbit? sure, you need some sort of ethernet. doesn't have to be a 16pt switch (please don't say that you actually have a hub!) _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
