Ray,

On the PXE boot client,in the bios,besides selecting the network card as
your first boot device,you also probably need to *enable* the pxe part of
the NIC in the "integrated devices" portion of the system's bios as well.
( you may have an option there to select either RPL or PXE).
Also there may be an option in the systems bios to "use INT18" or INT19"
as a pxe boot option. Without have one of these enabled the machine will
NOT actually pxe boot from the onboard nic.
These particular cards/chips, WILL PXE boot if the added options are
correct as well.
DO you ever see the lines "Intel UNDI 2.0" in the bootup process of the
client going to your K12LTSP server? I m guessing not?...
Hope this is clear enough ( as mud,right),,,:).

Take Care,

Barry Cisna
