Ok, well it's easier for me to network boot Slackware (via an etherboot 
floppy), so this is what the first board says:  (P6LX-A+)

00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 440LX/EX - 82443LX/EX Host bridge (rev 03)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 440LX/EX - 82443LX/EX AGP bridge (rev 03)
00:07.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ISA (rev 02)
00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01)
00:07.2 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 USB (rev 01)
00:07.3 Bridge: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 02)
00:0a.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. 86c764/765 [Trio32/64/64V+] (rev 
43)
00:0c.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905B 100BaseTX [Cyclone] (rev 
24)

The last two items in the list are PCI cards.  I've yet to do the P133 board, 
but I think this one has the most chance of working.  I've attached the lspci 
-v output.

Thanks,
Adam.
