Re: bootme problem

Thank you, I have solved this problem. My NIC is Lan91c, I forgot to
set PRMS in Bank0 when initialization, which is used for receiving all
frames. In fact, I can't understand why the NIC have such a PRMS bit,
why not always receive all frames, what is it used for when PRMS is not
set?

I build a bootloader, it can send bootme well and the PB5.0 can
reply to it too. But here is a stange problem, bootloader can accept
destination 59.77.17.255 UDP packet but can't accept destination
59.77.17.100

Addresses ending with .255 are multicast, so they will be received by
all adapters in the subnet. I suspect a MAC address conflict because
directed packets, instead, must match exactly the MAC address.
If in doubt, try using a network analyzer.
