The great trick to solve problems, is to get a good description of the problem.

Right now is the only thing that I understand from the problem,
that there is workaround with using another Network Interface Card.

But I don't know why that works.

I _could_ assume that the other NIC does have a bootROM, 
but that is for me not the right way to go.

Please provide more information.
