Thanks again, everyone. Out of interest, what am I missing out on by
using the geni586 image in a net5501, rather than its own specific
build?
Thanks
Tom

I use the Disk Director Suite (under Vista) from Arconis.com. I typically even
have problems flashing new CF cards that are pre-formatted with FAT partitions.
I use Disk Director to delete all the partitions on the CF prior to flashing.
There is probably a way to do this using Windows itself,
OK. Finally got the geni586 image written to a card. 8139too is
uncommented by default, so that seems good. However, with no other
changes, the presence of the Beronet card seems to wipe out the
net5501's on-board NICs. Tried changing the order of the modules in
/etc/rc.modules, putting via-rhine
Tom,
what does
$ cat /proc/interrupts
and
$ dmesg | grep -i irq
(obscure the MAC addresses if you wish)
show ?

Well, I was only checking ifconfig, but ifconfig -a told me that the
onboard NICs were there, just not configured. I copied /etc/rc.conf to
/mnt/kd, and changed EXTIF from eth0 to eth1. This seems to have done
the trick. Does that sound about right?
Thanks, and apologies for all the questions.
Try putting the beronet card in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
