Re: Possible bug or flaw detected.
Ok, try this. do a make menuconfig and unselect all network drivers except
the EL3. (3c509) and make that one hardcoded (not a module) . Install that
kernel. Remove all but the minimum number of boards on the motherboard
needed to boot the system and display boot messages (take it down to the
most simple possible hardware configuration)
As a matter of fact, you might be best off doing a:
make-kpkg -revision test kernel_image after doing a make menuconfig.
(do the make-kpkg in /usr/src/linux)
Make sure that there are no other networking drivers installed either
hardcoded in the kernel or built as modules.
then cd to /usr/src and install the test kernel just like any other
package using dpkg -i
Boot it and give it a whirl.
