Be careful: the e1000 driver supports a whole family of NICs, but
Intels hardware guys always try to outperform the driver guys (but at

You're lucky, because I found myself a couple of month ago at a point,
where the newest Pro/1000 wasn't detected by my home rolled grub
driver, ripped of from some earlier eb incarnation. This got the rock
rolling...
