Post by Spooner, DarrenOk I got that to work, but I turns out that my nics are not supported
I'm sorry to hear that. It would be useful to have the exact
vendor:device PCI IDs for the NICs you're trying to get working
(available in Device Manager under Windows, or the output of `lspci -nn'
under Linux), so that we can pinpoint which drivers are missing.
Post by Spooner, DarrenIs there a way someone can develop dirvers for the intel pro 1000 MT
and/or intel pro wireless 2915abg?
And put them on the rom-o-matic site?
Drivers do not develop out of thin air. Wireless drivers especially take
a week or two of solid effort, even for someone who's done a lot of them
before.
If you are so inclined, you might consider learning the necessary skills
to develop a driver or drivers yourself; there are several useful
resources on http://etherboot.org/. If not, there are some very skilled
people in our community who do gPXE driver development under contract.
Our project leader, Marty Connor <***@etherboot.org>, is one and can
refer you to others.
Otherwise, this is a volunteer project for all of us, and unfortunately
we can't take a week or two away from our jobs to develop something for
free. We do this because we enjoy it. Drivers for those two types of
cards will probably come about eventually if you wait, but I can't
estimate as to when.
Thanks for your interest,
