Intel 82566DC-2 problem

Hi everyone!  I've got a computer I'm trying to install Fedora 7 on.
It has an Intel 82566DC-2 Gigabit NIC.

It is the only NIC on the computer.  But, its not showing up as eth0
(or anything else, for that matter.)

I did an lscpci, and I see the NIC (that's how I know its an 82566DC-2).

 # lspci | grep Gigabit
  Intel 82566DC-2 Gigabit... (typing from memory)
 # modprobe e1000
 # lsmod | grep e1000
   e1000 1117633 0  (typing from memory, the second number is 0)
 # dmesg | grep e1000
 # dmesg | grep eth0

Nothing in dmesg about it.  I understand the situation, it see the PCI
device but e1000 doesn't think it should deal with it.

What should I do?  I'm kind of stumped here.
