Hi,
I have just compiled a -current kernel on my z50
(current as of 3 or so days ago, that is).
While building the new kernel from the system running
with the GENERC kernel from the hpcmips binary set worked
fine, I now get a stream of messages like the following:
Dec 1 15:25:24 z50 /netbsd: ne0: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 57600
Dec 1 15:25:25 z50 /netbsd: ne0: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 41984
Dec 1 15:25:25 z50 /netbsd: ne0: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 4728
...and after some time, the system will hang completely.
As I only have a CF flash card large enough to hold pdsboot
and the kernel, I have root and swap via nfs.
The network card is a:
ne0 at pcmcia0 function 0 port 0x15000400-0x1500040f port 0x15000410-0x1500041f
ne0: SVEC/Hawking Tech. Combo Card Ethernet
ne0: Ethernet address 00:e0:98:92:aa:9a
Has anyone had a similar problem yet?
Alex.
