Do you have a better idea than "between 6.1 and 6.2" as to when it broke?
There was a fair amount of work on bge in that time so knowing CVSup dates
or revisions could be useful.
No :(
I have updated to RELENG_6 as of today and will try that tomorrow morning.
If that doesn't work I'll try a binary search.
What speed switch are you using? Auto-negotiate or hard-wired? If
you have a managed switch, does switching between hard-wires and
auto-negotiate have any effect?
Currently it's connected to a 10mbit hub :)
(Very crusty, I know)
I've tried hard wiring it to 10BaseT/UTP but no change.
I have an older bge (BCM5705 A3 NIC/PHY) running 6.2 and the initial
ifconfig (during rc.d processing) normally reports "no carrier" but
it recovers in a second or so (it's OK by the time ntpdate wants
the network). I presume you find that ifconfig is still reporting
no carrier once it's in multi-user mode.
I am booting install media, but this is long past the kernel startup - I run
the CD/DVD shell and then run ifconfig.
