Real hardware drivers should provide much better functionality than PXE (other firmwares may do better, though).
No argument there. For Solaris, the PXE firmware has proven reliable enough for us not to investigate other alternatives. Sure, there are ranges of PXE packet throughput between NICs of the same speed, but a few more seconds of load time are no big deal. For what we need, PXE is sufficient.
