I have flash (plpbt-5.0.11) plop pci rom to pci lancard 8139 bootrom and it work fine in AWARD bios mainboard.
But when I insert the lancard to another mainboard with AMI bios,
it is no work. the boot Main menu cannot start.(cmos have set BOOT from LAN)
I have try two different AMI mainboard, it is also no work.

I have also install the plpbt-5.0.11 to Harddisk, it work fine.

Have anybody with same problem?

Elmar

I can see Press D to disable....., and 2 second count down.
And then it clean screen very fast, and go to boot HD.

Elmar

did you set the boot manager in the bios boot sequence before the hard disk?

henry136

Yes, The BIOS setting boot from LAN is 1st select. HD is 2nd select.

Elmar

did you use the parameter -forceINT and -INT18 with plpbtrom program?

I have no change int19h setting in cfg.The hotkey is off.
The parameter -forceINT and -INT18 is bios setting or cfg plpbtrom ?

Elmar

its from plpbtrom.
try -forceINT, but not -INT18

henry136

make boot rom use :
plpbtrom -forceINT -vendorid 0x10ec -deviceid 0x8139 plpbtrom.bin plpbt.rom

Both of AMI /AWD bios,Boot Main menu start.
Thanks
