I understand you want to boot a system with a network driver not
supported by the initial network boot system, right?

IIRC, you could create a new initrd using mkinitrd.  The easiest way to
do this is to install a target system manually (once), create the new
initrd file there, and work with that.  Read the man pages to mkinitrd
and initrd.
