Maybe, but doesn't that defeat the purpose of a nice microatx board with
every feature you need onboard?
And where do you buy add in cards that network boot these days?
Another option is to just patch the kernel to check for the Asus leading
3 bytes of the MAC address and conditionally reverse the address if
needed, which I thought newer kernels did, but perhaps they don't in all
cases.
