Good day again Fatih,

If I understand you correctly, you edited your BIOS image to include a
gPXE .ROM image because you have at least one LAN-On-Motherboard NIC.
Further, after you incorporated this into your BIOS image and applied
your modified BIOS image back to the BIOS, your BIOS no longer functions
as it previously did.

Fist off, are you able to restore your original BIOS image?  Can you
SAN-boot to a DOS SAN that contains a flashing utility and your original
BIOS image so that you can restore it?

I'm no expert on modifying a BIOS image to include gPXE.  Some tips
might be: Remove the original network-booting module from your BIOS
image.  Try to match the size of the that module with the gPXE .ROM you
put in there, possibly padding gPXE to meet the same size.

Is there a particular BIOS modification guide you are following?
