How would you do that at build time?  There are boards that need
multiple ROMS (scsi, nic, vga ...)  Another problem is that sometimes
you want to have pxe be the ROM.  The point is that the filename is
whatever the user wants to call it in his own filesystem, but the pci
IDs have to be right or it won't work.
