The driver says this about the '574:
// case 0x10d3: /* l */
// type = i82574; /* never heard of it */
// break;
I've heard of it: my Asus Z8NA-D6C motherboard has one. Is there any
history I should know about before I light this up in the driver?

i have also heard of it, as i wrote the original code and am currently
typing this on a terminal with 2x 82574 lom chips.
i have no idea why that was commented out.
you may have better luck with 82563 from 9atom. it supports a
more hardware than the one in the distribution, and works around
some intel-mb bugs.
