Well, I've cvs'd this morning and rebuilt world and kernel and the 
Broadcom nic driver still panics the machine. The device is identified 
as BCM5787 and immediately after it loads the kernel gives

RAM Parity Error
some other suff like  a trace

panic , non-maskable interrupt trap

it now shows 6.2-pre-release as the version.

what can i do to help fix this and maybe get this into 6.2.

thanks
