[K12OSN] PXE boot problems...

[ROGER (Tripp) LOWE]

Thanks for the info, Tim.

If somebody could follow up on the following, I'd
sure appreciate it.  

"...It is supported by the sk98lin driver in Linux.  You may need to pass the option 129/129 to get the terminal to recognize the correct driver."

How exactly do I pass the 128/129 option, and where
do I store the sk98lin driver?

Thanks.

The Marvel is currently unsupported by Etherboot (maybe this fall).  It is supported by the sk98lin driver in Linux.  You may need to pass the option 129/129 to get the terminal to recognize the correct driver.
