Hi there,

I've recently got a shark board rev 5 firmware build date sep. 04, 1998 and 
want it to boot from a freebsd 4.2 over the net.

Very often but unreproducable I get the following error during the 
tftp-load of the kernel:

Etherner driver buffer position error
The most likely cause is a problem with the system's DMA hardware

Boot load failed


Is this really a hardware damage or a software (firmware) problem? What can 
I do?

I tried a set-default to reset the firmware-settings to factory settings. 
Since then a reset-all command fails, too. The system simply hangs then.


Thanx for your advices!


Mike Petroni
