Remote PXE boot with a custom kernel, and we used debootstrap on the NFS
root partition for the machines, chroot()'ed there, installed and configured
everything.
But on another servers that have disks, a friend switched the boot-floppies
kernel with a new one with proper drivers. I don't know how difficult it
was for him to do that, though.
Since I was not using the onboard controllers, I forgot about the issue.
Sorry about this. The new debian installer will probably install a SE7501CW2
without trouble (but I haven't tested it, and I don't know if it can install
Debian stable as well as Debian unstable).

All "Intel supported drivers" are in the kernel proper, as long as you get a
new enough one (2.4.24).
