Ethernet will not initialize on freebsd 6.0 Release:

Feb 28 06:51:59  kernel: vge0: <VIA Networking Gigabit Ethernet> port 
0xe000-0xe0ff mem 0xfb023000-0xfb0230ff irq 17 at device 7.0 on pci0
Feb 28 06:51:59  kernel: vge0: MII read timed out
Feb 28 06:51:59  kernel: vge0: failed to start MII autopoll
Feb 28 06:51:59  kernel: vge0: MII without any phy!
Feb 28 06:51:59  kernel: device_attach: vge0 attach returned 6

The same thing happens with i386 or amd64.
6.1 beta2, same thing.

I found problem amd64/87316 on the buglist.  Should I open a separate problem 
for i386?


Thanks for any assistance.
