The ethernet card that you intended to use is _really_ supported one?
It might have new SONIC chip "DP83934", or so, as LAN controler LSI, wrong?

The ethernet driver "ae" currently supports "DP8390x", or A/ROSE type,
I think.

I knew not _all_ Apple's ethernet card are supported.
I also met the same error as you saw.  Therefore, my "Apple's card" has
been plugged out, and I have use "Farallon EtherWave NB" instead of it.
This card is fine under current kernel.

On the MacOS side, all cards I tired work file, even if I did not
install ethernet driver resources that come along with each card.

By the way, on Q630, I have not met the good ethernet cards yet.
