For the record I have the following ethernet cards in my AlphaPC-264DP:

ex0 at pci0 dev 9 function 0: 3Com 3c905B-TX 10/100 Ethernet (rev. 0x30)

At times in the past I beleive I have seen panics occur just from
running "pcictl pciXX list", but not today:

# pcictl pci0 list
000:05:0: Contaq Microsystems 82C693 PCI-ISA Bridge (ISA bridge)
000:05:1: Contaq Microsystems 82C693 PCI-ISA Bridge (IDE mass storage, interface 0x80)
000:05:2: Contaq Microsystems 82C693 PCI-ISA Bridge (IDE mass storage)
000:05:3: Contaq Microsystems 82C693 PCI-ISA Bridge (USB serial bus, interface 0x10)
000:06:0: Adaptec AIC-7895 Ultra (SCSI mass storage, revision 0x04)
000:06:1: Adaptec AIC-7895 Ultra (SCSI mass storage, revision 0x04)
000:07:0: Texas Instruments TVP4020 Permedia 2 (VGA display, revision 0x01)
000:09:0: 3Com 3c905B-TX 10/100 Ethernet (ethernet network, revision 0x30)

# pcictl pci1 list 
000:07:0: Digital Equipment DC21140 ("FasterNet") 10/100 Ethernet (ethernet network, revision 0x12)
000:09:0: Mylex DAC960 RAID (v2 interface) (RAID mass storage, revision 0x02)


One of the crashes I think was on my AS4000 when I tried to walk a
non-existant bus, i.e. pci2 IIRC.
