I solved it by changing a BIOS setting that limited the number of IRQ assignments from a "legacy" mode. Once I did that, the timeouts went away. Boot messages now show: fxp0: <Intel Pro 10/100B/100+ Ethernet> port 0x1060-0x107f mem 0xf8000000-0xf80fffff,0xf8104000-0xf8104fff irq 20 at device 15.0 on pci0 It's been working great (doing multiple buildworlds all the time) since I changed this in December.
