I have a machine that is acting up. It was doing this a couple
weeks ago and I replaced the motherboard thinking that maybe the
physical ethernet port was going bad (connector or chip). The new
motherboard is starting to act up the same way after a week or two
of running fine and I am wondering if something else might be the
issue.
I forgot to mention that the MB at issue is the Tyan S2850 single
opteron MB. This particular server had its MB replaced a week or two
ago for the same sort of issue on bge1 that got progressively worse
and I eventually turned it off in the BIOS. Then a while later it
started seeming to freeze up with this same issue as listed below
and I replaced the MB, which is starting to show the same issue.
I have a few other servers with the same MB and they have never had
any issues.

After the uname I list the stuff from the syslog before it goes off
the net and my auto rebooter power strip thinks it has crashed and
forces a reboot (which I have now turned off so I can go in and
look more next time it happens). This did not happen for the last
week or two and all of a sudden happened about 5 times today...

What does this message mean? PHY read timed out? I did a google
on it but the issues were various other things.
Could this be a bad cable?
Thanks
Chad
