Same here, just to make sure to get that point through: em doesn't share an interrupt with anything else -> hang will occur sooner or later if the system is busy (sometimes later, but reproducably) force system to share interrupt of, say, ata0 and em0 -> immediate *kaboom* whenever both are busy HTH, Patrick -- punkt.de GmbH Internet - Dienstleistungen - Beratung Vorholzstr. 25 Tel. 0721 9109 -0 Fax: -100 76137 Karlsruhe http://punkt.de _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
