Dear developers,

it seems Intel has a new e1000 variant. The chip is the
82541PI, the PCI-ID is 0200:8086:107c. Etherboot does not 
detect it.

I patched a current etherboot 5.4.1 by replacing the 0x1076 
for an earlier e1000 with 0x107c and it seems to work. I 
am sorry, but I don't have the time to find out how to properly
add the new ID, so I don't have a patch.

The Card is an Intel Pro/1000 GT desktop adapter (PWLA8391GT).
The main difference seems to be that it is a lead-free
product.

lspci -v and lspci -v -n output below.
