Thanks very much, Dorian, Stijn, and Stuart:
I upgraded to 4.4-Current dated February 6. No change in symptoms.
It occurred to me that I had eliminated hardware problems with the
cards, but not with the PCI slots. So I moved /etc/hostname.re0 to
/root, and booted with re1 enabled. Freeze.
Next I removed re0, to see whether I actually have a bad slot. But of
course, with only one NIC (in the bottom PCI slot) it showed up as re0
instead of re1. And the system froze while attempting to enable it.
So it's not having two NICs enabled that's a problem, it's having a
nic enabled in the bottom slot that's a problem.
I could not see a way in the BIOS (Damn Lenovo crippled BIOS) to set
IRQs directly for cards. I did turn on PNP OS, which did not seem to
make a difference.
I next disabled all USB support through BIOS. (I'm able to do this
with no consequences because I'm using a PS/2 keyboard and no mouse.)
But the symptoms were unchanged; freeze after "starting network" at
boot.
I next tried to deactivate ACPI, but found only controls for selecting
S1 or S3 states, and which IRQ ACPI should use. (Currently set to IRQ
9.)
Just for the hell of it, I also disabled onboard sound and the
parallel port. No change in symptoms.
I re-enabled the onboard NIC, but the snapshot doesn't recognize it
either. (At least, ifconfig doesn't show it.)
I then put in a known-good (previously used in this system under
OpenBSD) wireless NIC in the bottom slot. Same symptoms once I copied
/root/hostname.re1 to /etc/hostname.ath0.
This is looking to me like a bad slot on the motherboard. Which
stinks, as this machine is out of warranty. Anyone have any further
troubleshooting suggestions?
