So here is the report (from nyan@):
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:1:0: class=0x020000 card=0x10008086 chip=0x10008086
rev=0x03 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = '82542 Gigabit Ethernet Controller'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
It is not recognized by the new driver at boot time while worked fine
with the old one. I think we should not remove the existing
hardware support (especially in -STABLE) if possible.
