Hi, Following an IRC chat with mdc, I am posting an issue I am running into with a new NIC and undionly.kpxe in the hope that someone can help me out.
The next generation of HP blades (G7) uses the following NIC: http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/19a2/0710/103c3345 It is a BladeEngine card, and when I pxe boot it using normal pxelinux I am able to install RHEL5.5 no problem (it uses the be2net driver). The problem lies with the UNDI driver in gpxe. It recognizes the NIC, can ifopen it, and brings up link at 100MB. But all DHCP attempts on it fail. No packets at all are transmitted or receieved. Debug shows all the interface opens, closes and removes happening as you'd expect. But there is no traffic. I have confirmed this isn't an artifact of STP or PortFast (the switch is configured correctly, and other types of NIC in earlier blades gPXE fine). Please let me know what other information will help solve this issue.
