Subject: Network hang with 2.4.1-pre9 and 3c59x
Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2001 12:40:58 -0500 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200101231740.MAA27037@panic.harvard.edu> (raw)


Hi,

I read about some problems with my ethernet card (3c59x) but it was rumored
that they were fixed in 2.4.1-pre8.  I have 6 IDE drives raided together and
was stress testing the disk IO.  Suddenly there was no network!

>From the log:
