Re: Very strange Marvell/Yukon Gigabit NIC networking problems

[Steve Kieu]

Hi all,

I have "fixed" the problem in a very wierd way.Reading
your post I thought maybe when removing the driver
itself it set some bit incorrectly. Then I decided to
do:

Boot with init=/bin/bash  so bypass all other things.
modprobe skge

run ifconfig eth0 ip_num  up


ping  a host

then while pinging hit Ctrl+Alt+Del key to hot reboot
the system.

I still see the light at the hub lits. Now I boot to
winXP and as I expected , it worked!

No I boot 2.6.11 and it worked, so the problem resolve
but I am tooooo scared to run 2613 now :-)

Hope this information helps debuging the driver.

Thanks.

S.KIEU
