Joe;

Unfortunately (or fortunately) I am able to reproduce the problem as
well on my sparc classic (running current 12/30/99).

an ifconfig le1 up leaves the following in the dmesg buffer;

le0 at ledma0 slot 4 offset 0x8c00000 level 6: address 08:00:20:04:ae:ce
le0: 8 receive buffers, 2 transmit buffers
le1 at sbus0 slot 1 offset 0xc00000 level 7: address 08:00:20:04:ae:ce
le1: 8 receive buffers, 2 transmit buffers
=2E
=2E. Other junk removed
=2E
le1: controller failed to initialize
le1: controller failed to initialize
