 Indeed, but at least the system would boot and I could install it.
 The problem is related to the phy, because this board has 4 macs
 and the two with the 1gb phy are attached without problems (and I
 suppose they will work too), but the 2 macs with the 10gb phys
 will fail. Not a a big issue in my side as I am going to use only
 one of the interfaces. As, commented in the original report,
 OpenBSD was able to boot enumerating only the first 2 macs, and
 they worked without problems.

 I can try to take a look to the problem with the phy, but for that
 I need first a bootable system.
