At this level, you're basically screwed. A sofware checksum isn't even an option on other PCI users, like disk controllers. If you don't trust your PCI chipset, what do you do about things like that? I'm rather curious -- what was the problematic hardware combination? Drew To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
