PXE boot is not required (Doug's version he gave me didnt require it either).
Actually, it's almost identical to original version - only thing has changed:
asf enable code was move past bge_reset call.

The issue seems to be that during the driver start sequence, a flag is getting set in the chip that's disabling the IPMI passthrough that I need in order for data destined for a second mac address on the interface to recieve packets. Or, a flag that this process needs isn't getting set. Not sure which, but I could really use some help here.
