Well, a couple of points: - I'm running Etch on several PDSMi-based systems and not getting this problem - The search you did throws up results from many people using many different mainboards. If you remove the "e1000" part you even see the same things with many different network adapters. - Some of the problems you pointed to turned out to be hardware faults so I think it is rather premature to ascribe this problem to a widespread problem with this mainboard. Many of the threads found with your search recommend fixes or workaround, e.g.: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1463045&group_id=42302&atid=447449 Cheers, Andy -- http://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting Encrypted mail welcome - keyid 0x604DE5DB
