(without the patch the same) If not, the rom displays link problem, and really the LED shows that too. If i unplug the cable, and take it back, no change. Only full power off helps. The shutdown value is unknown, because i dont know how to log that. This server boots from this device, and the netconsole using to log with this device too. :( (sorry for the late answer, but this is a server, and i dont want to restart it too often...)
