    This isn't Coda specific, but could you give us more details on this?  I
    knew that boot ROMs were an option for many ethernet cards, but I didn't
    realize you could get the same functionality with a floppy image.  Any
    pointers on this would be welcomed.

In that package look at etherboot-4.0/bin/README.
