Unfortunately not. The machine simply locks hard as soon as it loads the kernel 
module, and doesn't even provide a kernel oops in messages or dmesg. It just... 
dies. I will open an issue on github as requested.

Hi Erik

Please open an issue on github, we will try to reproduce this asap.

Thank you

If you are running a VMWare RHEL7 guest, and have the nic in ESXi set to 
E1000E, and try to replace the stock e1000e kernel module with the one included 
with pf_ring, the kernel module gets loaded when you turn on the interface, but 
then permanently bricks. The only solution to the problem is to remove the 
e1000e nic. Why is this causing a fault when you attempt to use the e1000e 
driver provided with the pfring bundled module?
