BTW, the same (or a very similar situation) happened to me also with a 
3C509 when I changed computers. As it turned out, the PnP stuff was
still enabled on the NIC. Using the 3COM setup diskettes (pnpdisable.bat
or such) cured this and I could again boot from disk.
Might be added as hint to the FAQ or install docs.
