I have seen similar problems with the etherexpress that comes with the thinkpad a21p. As near as I can tell, the card is not reset properly on a soft reboot. Linux after freebsd causes the kernel to hang, hard. FreeBSD after win98 tends to either have problems or fail to configure the card. My solution has been to remove both ac and battery to force it to fully reset . . . -- Prof. Richard E.
