FYI:  The Dell GX110's we deploy for standard Linux Athena cluster
machines have the 3c905c Ethernet NIC.  The IS install floppies have the
etherboot code for that NIC on them.  If the SIPB Linux Athena
installation lacks support for the 3c905c NIC, then it won't work for
the Dell GX110's we're recommending people buy!

Are we SURE we're really on the same page with regards to the NIC in
Dimitrios Rovas' machine?
