[ipxe-devel] iPXE Usage with 10GbE HBA

[Anton Starikov]

Hey,

I use ipxe on X520-DA2. But in my case ipxe is supplied by DHCP, so I can not say much about booting it from USB.
In my case it is compiled from git repo, commit 31f5211035cf0434a1b5043f707ecd2316d4a18c.

Anton.

When I boot iPXE from USB key I can see the two onboard 1GbE interfaces off the 82576 controller but I don’t see the interfaces off the 10GbE HBA.  Should I be able to use those interfaces from iPXE?  Does it require any special setup in BIOS or HBA OpROM or iPXE itself?  Any reason the HBA would not be showing up in iPXE?  I would like to initiate an iSCSI boot over the 10GbE HBA.
