I had tried swapping Ethernet cards (another fxp card) and the problem still occurred. Since I had another GA-586DX (Single P200, No cards or RAM) available, I swapped the motherboard and moved the RAM, Video Card, and Ethernet Card to this board and booted the server (w/same SMP Kernel). I was able to ftp the 400MB file up to another server without any 'fxp: device timeout' errors. Either I misconfigured the BIOS or there is a problem with the Dual P200 motherboard.
