I can do this - I've already played a bit with I2C EEPROMs.

If I can get DMA TX to work, we could have a network interface with the 
correct MAC address when starting FreeMAC. A good start :)

Okay, implement as you want. Anyway, this is pretty trivial and I rather 
think of the command line interface as a way to exemplify and try the 
functions in isl38xx_firmware.c as well as helping the reverse 
engineering of the chip - we'll clean it up in final releases.
