E1000 or pcnet would work from what I've been able to tell setting it up

We should automatically set the optimal NIC according to the OS type
and variant provided - we don't need to expose this as an explicit
command line arg. Just need someone to say what the optimal NIC for
OpenBSD is ?  Choice of  ne2k, rtl8139, e1000 ... take your pick
