If you are searching for drivers or have already compiled one take

ok, so I'm feeling pretty ignorant right now... I have about a boatload
and a half of new HP Evo D530's with the famous Broadcom NIC. I've read many
many pages of tips on how to get this driver, compile it and all but I'm
admittedly not Linux savvy. Am I right in thinking that there is no simple
way to add this driver to my PXE server so I can get back to some real work?

All thoughts appreciated,

simple will depend ;-)

if you have a running linux box (or knoppix, or any other live cd with
linux) it is quite easy.. if not.....

if somebody could post the linux.2 file it would be nice otherwise if I
find the time I could do it.. but time is scare at the moment..

I do have an already compiled linux.2 file I'm willing to email to anyone
who's had the same problems as me trying to trudge through all the
steps.This was provided to me by a fellow lister and worked perfectly the
1st time for my Compaq/HP Evo D530 PCs with the Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet
NIC.
