Subject:   netboot for each card?

I was just looking at that recent changes made to include the 3C509
support.  It seems netboot has now expanded past the 16K boundary,
making the ROM version as distributed useless.  We could bump the size of
the ROM image to 32K, but some cards may not work with ROMs of that size.

I was wondering if it makes sense to build a netboot.rom for each of the
supported cards.  This would leave us with a smaller that 16K rom image
(hopefully) for each of the cards which could then actually be used by
somebody.

Comments?
