System: FreeBSD test31.cluster.local 7.0-STABLE FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #2: Thu May 22 08:56:52 CEST 2008 root@test31.cluster.local:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
>Description:
7.0-RELEASE supports Intels 82575-based Gigabit Chips with em driver. 7.0-STABLE should use igb driver, but this is not activated in GENERIC. So after updating you lose you network interfaces.
>How-To-Repeat:
install FreeBSD-7-RELEASE, update to STABLE, reboot, have no network nterfaces anymore
>Fix:
insert following line into GENERIC:
device igb # Intel 82575-based Gigabit Ethernet
