Folks;
   Looks like we'er having the same problem with the quickstation-macgregor and macgregor-2  we
had with some of  the w20-575 workstations. We cannot install lucid on these 2 workstations.
It complains with error message 'Loading gpxe.krn...ready'  when using the install CD.

When using the onboard network devices we get message 'PXE-MOF;Existing broadcom PXE ROM'
Both workstations are up and running with the DebAthena screen and we'er able to login on them.

Macgregor-5 has the lucid screen and after reinstalling it still complains with the message 'Login failure
cannot reach Athena server' . Any information you can help us with would be great.
Cheers 
+JOHN
