Barts Network Boot CD

Trying to figure this out. I've gotten a brand new Dell GX280 with a
Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Adapter. On Bart's site, he has a cab file
plug in for the broadcom cards. However the newest card isn't being
detected. So I used some pci sniffers and found the adapter reporting
back as 1677H.

When I add this to the ndis.pci file, it looks like it can only accept
4 charachters instead of the 5 like it's reporting back. I compared
this to other devices specified, and it looks like it's ok to drop the
last charachter. I'll post the ndis.pci file from the b57.cab file I
modified. Can someone tell me if I did it correctly. It's still not
seeing the card.

Keep in mind, I added the last line. Also after looking at it, do the
device #'s have to be in numerical order?

ret="B57"
ven=14E4 "Broadcom"
dev=1645 "NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5701)"
1644 "NetXtreme Gigabit Etherent (BCM5700/5401)"
16A7 "NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5703X)"
165D "NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5705M 10/100/1000)"
165E "NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5705M 10/100/1000)"
166D "NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5705MFE 10/100)"
16A6 "NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5702 10/100/1000)"
164D "NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5702FE 10/100)"
1648 "NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5704C 10/100/1000)"
1696 "NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5782 10/100/1000)"
1677 "NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5751 10/100/1000)"

Thanks,

Brian

Did anybody successfully load network drivers with Bart's CD?

The card seems to be detected but I get an error message saying:
"NETBIND must be executed before TCP/IP TSR module is loaded."

I'm used to disable P'nP in the BIOS when I had similar errors in the past,
but don't find this option in GX280 BIOS.

Thanks in advance.
