  Yes, there is a serial eprom for that info, and CNet's page apparently
hasn't been updated properly yet. It still says there is a boot rom socket.
Anyway, It appears the PRO120C's support RPL, witch does essentially they
same thing as etherboot, at a much lower level. I'm gonna check with CNet
about how exactly to make use of it.
