There is a standard for this. The EPROM code will run on any lan card that
accepts EPROMs of that size and supports the standard. The standard is
elaborated by Intel afaik. I used etherboot/netboot (Linux/BSD and other
systems, including Windows and DOS) EPROMs (actually EEPROMs). They are
drop-in compatible once you set up the lan card to recognize your EPROM
type and map it at boot time.
