Hi Don, hi world,

I'm running a couple of diskless ws with the 3c905(!b) 
card and a netboot bootprom at a 24 port 10/100 intel 
510T switch. Because the packetdriver forces the card
to half duplex (according to it's messages), I had
to switch off NWAY auto negotation on the cards to
prevent netboot failures (50% chance). Is there a way
to reestablish full duplex mode again? (Or does anybody 
know of a FD enabled packet driver for this card?)

P.S.: Is it possible to reprogram an atmel AT29C512 eeprom 
with the vortex-diag program?
