Er, you know that PXE is integrated into the NIC bios and has nothing in
common with any driver?

And yes, pxe booting is working fine on our K8V boards.

Hi,

I don't know if they made any correction on their driver concerning the
bug on the K8VSEDX motherboard (VPD error).
I wrote the patch for Linux, included since kernel 2.6.7, so you need at
least this kernel to use this mobo without trouble.

Marc.
