Booting an ia64 box with a tg3 adapter results in no network. If I look
at the MAC address of the adapter, it has changed radically from the
original MAC. The original MAC continues to be reported by EFI and
booting an old kernel gets the correct MAC.
Good MAC: 08:00:69:13:E6:3C
Bad MAC: 00:00:3C:E6:13:69 (recreated from memory)
If I set the MAC using ifconfig, then everything works normally.
