I'm seeing the same oops with FC2 test3, kernel 2.6.5-1.351smp. It doesn't happen when bring the interface up manually or running ethtool afterware--both work fine. The oops only occurs when running /sbin/ifup. cheers, lars
I'm seeing this with fedora core 2 final. It will crash on install after verifying the dvd media. I'm using a netgear GA620T. I had to actually remove the card from the system to get it to install. Is this getting any traction? I was hoping to migrate about half of my ~100 clients to fedora core 2 for testing. Of those, about 20 of them have these netgear cards.
static char version[] __initdata = ... and strncpy(info.version, version, sizeof(info.version) - 1); in the ioctl(). *DUH*
I'm using FC2 Release on ABIT NF7 Series Motherboard. I was originally using the on-board ethernet but it kept stalling after downloading the linux-2.6.5.tar.bz. I'm now using AceNIC Gigabit... kudzu crashed (and caused my /etc/fstab to be trashed on xfs!). I disabled kudzu but the bloody system still managed to use ethtool and got the same crash. In the end I renamed ethtool and the system now works.
this is supposed to be fixed in the current update kernel (435).
