[gPXE] gpxe not chaining after pxe on quad-port NICs

[Miller, Shao]

Good day Marty,

I've been blocked by Steve's ISP as a spammer.  Would you possibly be
inclined to forward it on to him?  If so, I appreciate it!  If not,
perhaps he'll never know...  Heheh.

Take care,

- Shao Miller

Good day Steve,

I'm familiar with this NIC, the "NetXen Phantom," originally.

Would you care to share your "boot.cfg" file, which I suspect is a gPXE
script?

By the way, you might consider the convention of naming gPXE scripts
with the .gpxe filename extension, to avoid confusion when receiving
assistance.  The .cfg extension brings to mind a Syslinux config-file,
for me.  "boot.gpxe" seems nice. :)

If you use something like:

chain http://webserver/getgpxeconf.asp?hwaddr=${mac}

in your script, you might consider other combinations such as:

chain http://webserver/getgpxeconf.asp?hwaddr=${netX/mac}
chain http://webserver/getgpxeconf.asp?hwaddr=${net0/mac}
