Has anyone got remote boot to work under DOS 5.0 with EMM386 loaded using an
ethernet board which uses bus mastership/DMA?  I am experiencing problems here
with BICC Isolan and Western Digital controllers in a variety of machines.
EMM386 refuses to load during remote boot, but functions ok from floppy boot.
Is this a Microsoft problem?

Cheers

Dave
