Hmmm. I didn't expected this. I would recommend to use at least 16 buffer. If 
what you say is true (which I don't doubt), then there seems to be a problem 
in the 4xx ethernet driver.

Sorry but I don't have the time to dig into this right now. I would really 
appreciate it, if you could find the reason for this strange behavior and 
come up with a patch for it. :-)

If not, please use 16 for now. This is what is used on most 405 platforms and 
works quite well.

Best regards,
Stefan
