linux bootp tftp ethernet

[Oscar Stiffelman]

Hi,

Can anyone suggest an ethernet card for RedHat Linux that supports bootp
on Intel machines?

On the Compaq (Dec) Alpha machines, bootp is controlled from within the
SRM or alpha bios.  I believe that for PC's, bootp is controlled by the
boot rom on the ethernet card and does not require any special settings
in the bios.  

Can anyone verify this?


Thanks,
