For now, you must modify netboot/config.c. It would be 
desirable to support multiple NICs (or at least support
choosing one of them), but nobody works on it.

Summary:  need to be able to exclude onboard eepro100 nic from being used.

Original Submission:  Hi,

I have a small problem.

I use pxegrub on a system with mutiple eepro100 nics.
One of the eepro100 nics is onboard.
The one with the PXE bootrom is a pci card.

When pxegrub starts, it probes and finds the onboard card.. This card is not 
connected to the subnet where the tftpd server offers the menu.lst.. so pxegrub 
stops.

Is there a way to exclude the onboard card from being probed by pxegrub? or can 
I specify witch nic to use?
