Symantec Corporate Ghost 7.5 and Broadcom 440x NICs
Hello,
I have a new Dell Dimension 2400 which uses an integrated Broadcom 440x on the mobo. I'm trying to create a bootable floppy to image the disk over our LAN to a backup server. However, Corporate Ghost 7.5 does not have a driver for this NIC and my efforts to integrate a new 440x driver have not been successful. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I have found the Intel Pro 100 works for a number of different NICs, even though it shouldn't!

Thanks bunches. Worked like a charm.
Longbow, I know it has been a long time since you posted this! However I am now faced witht he same 440x trouble. I followed your steps you listed above. I got a little confused when you go to the part that says:
Run/Settings your Ghostcast Server.
what am I supposed to do here? i followed all the other steps and the boot disk still did not work :( I am hoping that this mystery step will solve my troubles!
Thank you, have a nice day,
Joe

I have a dell 1505 laptop which uses an onboard broadcom 440 10/100 nic.
I am trying to use ghost 7. 0 enterprise edition for image creation of this laptop
I cannot find the drivers which ghost would use on the client side on the floppy boot disk
please advise
thanks
