Bootutils reports unknown Flash for i210 - Trying to add PXE boot support

Trying to add PXE boot support for Intel i210 Gigabit Ethernet PHY, but bootutils does not recognize the flash. The tools lanconf64 and eeupdate work well. The Flash is programmed and the PHY operates normally, but it is not possible to configure PXE boot due to the fact that bootutils does not recognize the flash.

Please advise or suggest another way of enabling PXE boot.

 

Part number: WGI210IT_S_LJXT

Flash type: Winbond W25Q16JVSNIQ,

i210 image: Dev_Start_I210_Copper_NOMNG_16Mb_A2_3.25_0.03.bin

 

An example is added below using bootutils.efi, but the result is the same whether used in an OS or in the EFI shell.

hi~

Hi~ I've been trying to create an EFI image using BootUtil, but I haven't achieved the desired results.

Is there a more detailed step-by-step guide available? I

specifically need EFI files related to I210.
