 The disk size and memory size are a quick scan from dmesg. The disk size matches, but the memory size is a little off. It probably has to do with the way dmesg reports memory vs /sys reports memeory. It would be nice to find the /sys entry for consistency. 
 
-In /sys/devices/pci0000:00 are the sub directories correlated with the specific Ethernet hardware. In each directory that correlated to an Ethernet device there will be a symbolic link with the operating system name of the device. This will allow us to match up the pci address(name of the subdirectory of /sys/devices/pci0000:00) to the mac address (from ifconfig). lspci can tell us the associated pci address and a hardware identifier string.
