If I am fast enough, I can type 2 or 3 letters on the new prompt before it's blocked. |
| + | * meteger: there are a few PCI IDs in the current tg3 that work fine when you do a tftp or HTTP transfer but fail miserably for iscsi, for some reason. but that driver was ported to etherboot in 2003, and it took 7 years for someone to request that specific PCI ID. | ||
