Probably 8 years, since the last series was discontinued. OK, so I've taken the original grub-diskless patch (originally targeted at 0.95, which can be found in the GRUB bug tracker) and applied it to 0.97. I've had success using the e1000 driver. However, I actually use the UNDI driver with the e1000's I have since I need to support both Intel and Broadcom NICs in a PXE boot environment. If there's interest, I can post said patch to the list, or I can just email the people who have expressed interest directly. - michael
