I'm also seeing this running On a Penguin Relion 2612, using the
forcedeth gigabit ethernet driver, bonding eth0 and eth1 with bond-mode
4.  Also, I'm running a vlan setup on top of the bonded driver.

I can generally get the setup to work by hand, although seemingly not
with a mere "/etc/init.d/networking restart" or "ifdown bond0; ifup
bond0".  On initial startup, it seems that only one of the two slaves,
either eth0 or eth1 is listed with "ifconfig", but not both.  If I
remove all devices with "ifconfig eth0 down; ifconfig bond0 down;
ifconfig lo down", etc. and then "ifdown bond0", and do a network
restart, it will end up working after some fiddling.  In which case the
bond0 interface, both eth0 and eth1, the vlan, and lo, are all listed by
ifconfig.

This is on a fresh karmic install from alternate install CD, btw.  I
just reinstalled from a system running Hardy, where this worked fine,
although I had to update the /etc/network/interfaces configs (I was
using post-up/down ifenslave passages before)
