<font face="sans-serif">Hello,<br>
<br>
I have a box that has 2 BCM5906M ethernet ports. When I do<br>
an ifconfig of either of the ports the kernel panics.<br>
I have tested the current Centos kernel, 2.6.35.10-ml and 2.6.36-2-ml
all with the same results.<br>
So I decided to build the latest kernel.org kernel from linus' git tree.<br>
I built it on F14 because it is a q6600 system - target is a Via C7 at
1ghz.<br>
<br>
I copied the config file from 2.6.36-ml and did a make oldconfig<br>
and then a make -j4 rpm.<br>
When I try to do the install I get the following about rpmlib(...)
messages that I have<br>
not been able to find anything definitive on the web after googling for
over an hour.<br>
Any help would be appreciated.<br>
