Nope. The config bytes 2c-2f on all the board's PCI devices are 0. The
440BX manual states that they are write-once and have to be set during
bootup; I suspect the same is true for the southbridge.
Or are you hinting at something completely different?

Am I right in thinking we can only use PCI devices for board
identification? Unfortunately this board has no PCI devices other than
those in the north- and southbridges (and expansion cards). No onboard
sound, vga or ethernet.
