Hi Dan,

In addition to the "70-persistent-net.rules" file as Michael pointed out, you 
may (or many not) have a "/etc/rc.modules" file, you will need the "e1000e" 
line uncommented for your NF99FL-525.

Personally I prefer the geni586-serial version, but the geni586 (VGA) will work 
fine if you prefer a video console.
