[gPXE-devel] New tg3 driver - Call for testers

[Quinn Plattel]

Hi,

I am currently trying to compile with debugging on serial console turned
on, but I am getting this error:

$ make bin/tg3_main.usb DEBUG=tg3_main:3,tg3_hw,tg3_phy
  [BUILD] bin/usbdisk.o
  [OBJCOPY] bin/usbdisk.bin
make: *** No rule to make target `bin/tg3_main.dbg3.o', needed by
`bin/blib.a'. Stop.

What's wrong here?

br,
Quinn
