After reading /sys/i386/conf/LINT about the MII bus device I guessed that it might be a problem with 3c900. So I swapped out the 3c900 with a spare 3c905 10/100 card. The stop and reboot problem cleared up. As an experement I put the old card back in a booted off a 3.2 Generic kernel. The system came right up. But the 4.0 kernel still rebooted after the card init. The 3c900 card is in another system now working properly. I kept the 3c905 in this system. It looks like it does not like the non-10/100 cards. >How-To-Repeat: Load the xl and MII with a 3c900 10-T card >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
