OK, I have a wild idea based on a troubling experience I had two weeks ago. Oracle has just created bug 2652798 on their Oracle Lite product. I had two identical servers at work. One had more memory than the other. The Compaq server with less memory displayed the Mobile Server webtogo site in Oracle Lite properly. The production server with over 1405MB would not serve the webtogo site up. Apache just hung on the page.The PCI bus is scanned properly under RedHat 7.2 and works fine. I don't think that is it.In fact the dmesg output looks ok to me and is almost the same under redhat and bering rc4, except for the PCI stuff that is. I have disabled the realtek card.
Go figure! I lost a week on the project until I took some memory out. :-(
I don't have time to try it now plus I'd have to try the Bering distribution, but my ECS board below has sockets for both PC 133 and PC2100 memory. PC2100 memory is faster, and perhaps requires a different bus architecturally in the kernel. (That's was the best speed increase in a computer that I have seen in awhile when I switched from PC133 to PC2100 on this mother board. YaDa YaDA.) So my proposal is to try and boot Bering on this mother board presuming it would fail to recognize the Ethernet cards. Switch back to PC133 and boot Bering again presuming it would recognize the Ethernet cards. If this proves to be true, then perhaps there are kernel options to recognize PC2100 and the newer PC2700 memory. Perhaps Red Hat has compiled them into the kernel? Perhaps Bering would have to compile them in? (HMMMM PC2700 memory bus speeds at 333MHZ. What a concept!?)

I am running an AMD 1700+ with 128MB DDR 2100 RAM.For what its worth many of these boards have lots of on-board extras. My Elitegroup ECS K7S5A, which sounds like yours has both a reltec ethernet and AMR devices onboard. I disabled them. Ummm...I go for cheap any more on component, which the ECS falls under. So far I've had no problems. Any chance the PCI bus is bad on the motherboard? Greg Morgan
