Yes. Scyld Beowulf only support PCI network cards. Our boot process on the slave nodes involves scanning the PCI bus for network cards, then using them to RARP and download the real kernel. Unfortunately, you can't scan the ISA bus like you can the PCI bus, so we can't support ISA network cards. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
