Thanks John for the response. By enabling the PXE ROM, do you mean to enable
tg3 NIC for PXE boot in BIOS? I have enabled it ( i am able to do gpxe boot
on this), but stil. Also how do you find out the what Netboot agent version
the card has?? ( during gpxe boot, it says HP UNDI PXE-2.1  v10.4.6 -> is
this the netboot agent version? )

Thanks & Regards,
Divya
