Might anyone know which, if any, etherboot driver to us for the Net6501?

I'm porting some existing code that uses etherboot 5.4.3 and the NIC
driver generator at rom-o-matic.net shows a listing for:

        82547ei [0x8086,0x1019]
        82547gi [0x8086,0x1075]

The the numbers in brackets don't seem to match the PCI-IDs that I'm
seeing on the Net6501 (using "lspci" on Linux running on the board.)

        05:00.0 Class 0200: 8086:10d3 e1000e
        06:00.0 Class 0200: 8086:10d3 e1000e
        0a:00.0 Class 0200: 8086:10d3 e1000e
        0b:00.0 Class 0200: 8086:10d3 e1000e

This isn't a high priority for me as I'm booting quite happily off of a
SATA drive (a real Seagate SATA hard drive), but eventually I might want
to revive my net-boot mechanism.

BTW, I'm seeing a wall-power draw of about 18Watts during Linux idle
with one active gigabit link, 20W under high computational load.  Nice.

Thanks,
