Intel Etherexpress 10/100B  which has a S82557 chipset. Others may work but
these I've tested and have been very reliable. I have a close up shot of the
NIC here(along with other parts)

I dont know of a way to tell the 16Meg flash apart from the 2 meg flash only
because I do not have the 16 to take a look at. I would suspect you could
look at the PN on the flash chips.

One error that seems to be very common is that the video card screws up the
IRQ that that PIX bios wants to use. Since you need to config the
motherboard BIOS for things like CPU speed and so on, you need a video card.
Once the PIX bios takes over, the video card is useless. But.. when testing,
the IRQ conflict happens pretty often.

My FP is running 5.1(4) which is the last 2meg flash image I'm aware of..
there might be one slightly newer but this one does everything I need it to
do for now.
