I found the following thread: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=31769 I find I am unable to use the NIC's (there are 4 on the server). When we put a cable into it we get a "watchdog timeout -- resetting" error, and the machine will pause for 5 or so seconds. IP may or may not come up randomly. eg. pings will work for 10 seconds and then it will pause and stop. It is hard for me to get you some decent output because no networking works. I need to get this puppy on the network, any suggestions? Will it be resolved in RC1, when can I expect it?
