The 7.0-STABLE-200806-amd64 snapshot works flawlessly (so far)! The NIC is detected where it wasn't previously, and there is no delay/hang whilst loading the kernel...

The boot sequence gets as far as the keyboard driver then hangs indefinitely. I've read other similar posts concerning the ML110 G5 and have tried loading the ipmi module at the boot prompt. This loads successfully, but the subsequent boot sequence still hangs. I have noted that a kernel patch will be required for the NIC, but I'm less concerned about this at present. Anyone know how to get this model up and running? Am I chasing a lost cause?
