After installing the pro/1000, the machine periodically crashes hard. Sometimes it stays up for a few hours, and sometimes for a day, but never for more than two days. This box is a gateway connected to a wifi network, a cable modem and a switch, runs various daemons, serves NFS etc. It's running a recent build of 6.0-STABLE (built 1/11) with the BSD scheduler and PREEMPTION on and FAST_IPSEC. When it crashes it sometimes reboots, but usually it just completely locks up. I have been unable to get a crash dump. Has anyone had similar problems? It seems to be related to the em device, as this didn't happen before. Thanks, Geoff
