Hi,

I have a Netbsd 2 machine with an Intel SB82558B chipset network card
which has frozen a couple of times. The interesting thing is that the
network card is going mad but everything else has locked up.

A tcpdump from another machine yields :

08:29:06.409604 0:90:27:d:1f:29 1:80:c2:0:0:1 8808 60:
0001 011f 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
08:29:06.422748 0:90:27:d:1f:29 1:80:c2:0:0:1 8808 60:
0001 011f 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
08:29:06.435921 0:90:27:d:1f:29 1:80:c2:0:0:1 8808 60:
0001 011f 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000

being continuously repeated (with the time increasing). Has anyone seen
anything like this before?

Details of my system are..

Arch:
  i386 (Celeron 1.2, 512MB RAM)
OS:
  Netbsd 2.0_STABLE
Network card:
  fxp0 at pci2 dev 13 function 0: i82558 Ethernet, rev 5
  fxp0: interrupting at irq 11
  fxp0: Ethernet address 00:90:27:0d:1f:29

Is there any other information which would be useful in diagnosing? Any
ideas about where to go from here would be much appreciated ...

Stuart
