I have a BCM5751M NIC in a Thinkpad I would like to flash w/ iPXE. My
understanding is that it will likely work with the tg3 driver once I add
the PCI ID (as per the old gPXE mailing list here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/gpxe@etherboot.org/msg01194.html )

After seeing the warning up on the ipxe download page about the rom size
versus burning a mrom. I had a couple of questions.

How can I determine if a network card supports a rom larger than 64kb?
How can I tell if a network card supports a mrom image?
