Hola peeps :-) I'm booting windows 2k3 R2 Advanced by iSCSI from one network card (SAN side). Windows fails to bring up the second card (Access & domain side) claiming the device cannot start, however if I disable and then enable the hardware it works fine. The hardware I am using is an IBM HS20 blade, with a broadcom5704 chipset dual port network card. The units don't have iSCSI boot initiators, so I'm chain booting gPXE from PXE to boot windows by iSCSI from a SAN LUN. I'm using the most recent driver for this chipset from the broadcom site, and I've tried with the most recent from the IBM site too. I've tried all relevant BIOS permutations Current startup script: #!gpxe sanboot iscsi:192.168.200.2::::iqn.2009-09.local.sanside:bl02 Anyone got any ideas? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
