Alan,

    I have a large # of these deployed and have had to date not one single
problem...I've always gotten away with the default kernel settings even on my
custom kernels.

    This is from one of my 4.2 systems.

rl0: <Accton MPX 5030/5038 10/100BaseTX> port 0x1400-0x14ff mem
0xfa001000-0xfa0010ff irq 15 at device 8.0 on pci0
rl0: Ethernet address: 00:e0:29:6f:73:04
miibus0: <MII bus> on rl0

    I hope this helps.  One thought is to check the system board's bios and
make sure that pnp os is off...

cheers,
mikel
