The README of etherboot 4.5.7 states:
You can test the image with a floppy before programming an EPROM. On
Linux just put a blank floppy in fd0 and say make card.fd0 where card
is the name of your network card and it will copy a bootable image
onto the floppy.
However, if i try this, i get:
rebehn@oslo:~/linux/netboot/etherboot-4.5.7/src$ make 3c905.fd0
make: *** No rule to make target `3c905.fd0'. Stop.
This used to work in earlier versions (did not upgrade for quite some
time).
Also, the README says:
If you do set the IDs correctly, the floppy version will work, but the
ROM will not.
I think it should read: "If you do NOT set the IDs..."
