[K12OSN] Compaq Deskpro not PXE booting

[Bert Rolston]

Hi Joe,

The Netelligent is a brute to get going.

I can't remember if anyone on this list has managed to get one to work.
I didn't several years ago, and Rom-O-Matic didn't have any boot disks.

This could have changed.

Save time, try to disable the onboard NIC and install a NIC with the
realtek chipset. Unless someone else has been successful with this.

Cheers,
Bert
