Antwort: Re: [suse-autoinstall] Problems with Grub Floppy
Hi Thanks for this greate tipp! - Do you have any idea if it's possible to build a disk with more than one single dirver? On the URL you told, i can only download an floppyimage with one driver. Is there any problem by building a floppy disk with more than one driver? Thanks!

For GX260s we use Etherboot and it works very well. The floopy images from http://www.rom-o-matic.com support the e1000 in the Dell. -Eric On Mon, 28 Jul 2003 Alexander.Gehrig@RSD.rohde-schwarz.com wrote:
Hi All
At the moment we are use 4 bootdisks to install linux by using autoyast. In the feature we want to have only one disk. So i test tftp and bootp with grub. It works without problem on some systems... but on our new systems (Dell GX260) it will not work because the networkcard driver failed. Does anybody know how to add the "Intel Ethernet Express 1000/MT" to grub?
I just tried to compile (0.93) and create the grubbootdisk myself, but i did not find anyway to include another driver. Which kind of driver can i include to grub and how can i include this dirvers?
Thanks!
Bye

I don't know if you can put more than one driver on one disk. You might want to dig around the Etherboot site. Also, you should consider PXE instead of Etherboot if possible. We only use Etherboot where the network layout prevents the use of PXE (ie. it conflicts with existing PXE services). -Eric On Tue, 29 Jul 2003 Alexander.Gehrig@RSD.rohde-schwarz.com wrote:
