OK, so I've taken the original grub-diskless patch (originally targeted at 0.95, 
which can be found in the GRUB bug tracker) and applied it to 0.97.  I've had 
success using the e1000 driver.  However, I actually use the UNDI driver with 
the e1000's I have since I need to support both Intel and Broadcom NICs in a PXE 
boot environment.

If there's interest, I can post said patch to the list, or I can just email the 
people who have expressed interest directly.
