After a false start with the 82571 flavor I have checked kernel driver
code and
it turned out that pid 1502 is the new variant of the pch controller
(found in
e1000e_ich8lan.c in the ipxe driver) used in new intel family 6 mobile
chipsets.
I have more or less dumbly copied the info section from kernel code.
At first sight it seems to work (the driver initialized the controller
and I was able
to get an ip address via dhcp) but I need to do further testing (e.g.
boot over iscsi).

Let me know when you've tested the latest version.
Probably I will have the time to try it during the weekend and will
let you know.
-is 8086:1502 (there is an 8086:1503, too) would be a difficult
task?
Did you try simply adding a relevant PCI_ROM() line? That sometimes
works, if
the new card is sufficiently similar to an existing card.
Yes I did that, but the driver failed to initialize the controller. I
will post the message.
Will also turn on debugging in the e1000e driver.
