The first thing that came to my mind was PCengines.  They have some boards with 
multiple RJ-45, USB bootable (http://www.pcengines.ch/apu2c4.htm or 
http://www.pcengines.ch/apu1d4.htm, for example).  Alas, I thought they were 
ARM, but they are AMD.  I can't help mentioning them anyway.

Good luck in your search.  I'd be interested in knowing what you go with.
