===== Week 1 ===== ==== Day 1 ==== Git commit: [[http://git.etherboot.org/?p=people/andreif/gpxe.git;a=commit;h=0e64b6cd060808571a97d2ed26361952ac9c513d|0e64b6cd060808571a97d2ed26361952ac9c513d]] Today's goal was to have the new pcnet32 driver skeleton in place. I took the exact structure that the r8169.[ch] implementation has, and modified it accordingly. Made the first commit/push after that. Until now I've been testing gpxe by creating an ''.iso'' image and using that from VMware. After finding [[appnotes:gpxeonvmware|this page]], I've decided to give the ROM "burning" a try. At first it didn't work because the new ethernetX interface I've created in the ''.vmx'' file was automatically set in bridged mode. I didn't immediately realize that gpxe would not be able to get to my local DHCP/TFTP servers this way. After fiddling with the ''.vmx'' file, I eventually set the NAT option in VMware and it worked. This test was done using the old pcnet32 driver. Compiled using:<code> $ make NO_WERROR=1 bin/pcnet32.rom </code> since my driver's routines are empty and I had to ignore the ''unused parameter'' warnings temporarily. VMware now greets me with a ''No more network devices'' message since my ''.probe'' routine does nothing.
