As you can see, it works on my system, which is a Amptron 830LM and is 
based on the SiS-735. The MAC address is what the motherboard 
documentation tells me it should be.

sis0: <SiS 900 10/100BaseTX> port 0xb800-0xb8ff mem 
0xcffcd000-0xcffcdfff irq 5 at device 3.0 on pci0
sis0: Ethernet address: 00:d0:09:d7:58:60
miibus0: <MII bus> on sis0


sis0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        ether 00:d0:09:d7:58:60 
        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active


I temporarily hooked up that connector for simple testing. I can ping 
it from my other computers. I don't have a firewall connection setup 
for it and have downed the NIC rather than setup the rest of the 
networking.
