Here's another data point.  I just got my ebony today, and in my
initial testing running nothing but the kernel and busybox, I got an
oops if I did "ifconfig" (looked like it came from somewhere near
register_gifconf).  I changed EMAC_NUMS in ibm440.h to 1 (from 2) and
now ifconfig works fine.

However, I didn't experience any crashes, even with EMAC_NUMS equal to
2, running with NFS root.

Best,
  Roland
