I have a RealTek 816x NIC in my FreeBSD 8.0 box. I did a full system install
last night and at 2AM the NIC gave out. Now it's crapping out in minutes
instead of hours.
When I run /etc/rc.d/netif restart I get the normal processing data about my
NICs and then this:
re0: reset never completed!
I worked with a similar patch for the bce driver, and received the same
issue.
From what I've seen, the patch would be for the mii device for this error.
After patching mii, the error and issues were resolved.

Jason,
I'll try again tomorrow. I think the board is bad, to be completely honest.
I pulled my desktop board out and installed that, got 8.0 to install OK there,
then went to attach the RAID card (an HPT RocketRaid) and boom. It loads the
BIOS, loads the RAID BIOS and nothing.
I'll try again
