[ipxe-devel] NIC Drivers

[Dean Westhead]

Hi Christian,

This is the ifstat from the old ( working ), build ( ipxe-5cf5ffe ) :

ipxe> ifstat

net(0): 70:10:6f:ed:25:18 using NII on NII-0000:06:00.0 (closed)
  [Link:down, TX:0 TXE:0 RX:0 RXE:0]
  [Link status: Unknown (http://ipxe.org/1a086194)]
net(1): 70:10:6f:ed:25:20 using NII on NII-0000:06:00.1 (closed)
  [Link:down, TX:0 TXE:0 RX:0 RXE:0]
  [Link status: Unknown (http://ipxe.org/1a086194)]

My build commands are :

make all
make bin-i386-efi/ipxe.efi bin-x86_64-efi/ipxe.efi EMBED=../nic-menu-eiso.ipxe
make bin/ipxe.eiso EMBED=../nic-menu-eiso.ipxe
mv bin/ipxe.eiso
 
The embeded script is the same copy on both versions.

The PCI ID's are :

10df:0720

Doing the same commands on the non workingversion of iPXE ( ipxe-785389c ), gives all the same results except at ifopen net0 gives :

ipxe: ifopen net0
Could not open net0: Input/Outpur error (http://ipxe.org/1d6a4a98)

Dean.

Hi,

PCI IDs would be a start, and if you have the old working version
output from ipxes ifstat would be helpful (and also the same output
from the new version to compare)

Just to rule out build issues could you please post your build cmd?
