i achieved in bonding four NICs in every computer, but i cannot bond six NICs. The computer boots OK but it freezes when i start using the network.
I use a Compex RE100ATX NIC with the 8139too driver. BTW when I use 4 Compex NICs and 2 3COM 905CX-TX-M i can bond 6 NICs. I use the MMIO mode of the above driver. There must be something wrong with the driver.
