Description of problem: I use a comptuter with a Intel Corporation 82546GB Gigabit network card (driver e1000). After the install (with the CDs), the network interfaces are up and working (ping ok). The computer is a 2 AMD dual core with 6 Go RAM, there was filesystem corruption problems with the original kernel (IOMMU problems), so I was looking for update. Until the 2.6.15 kernel, the computer was not usable. With the 2.6.15-1.183X, the filesystem seem stable but the network does'nt work anymore. At the boot, it says, that it can start the network interfaces. I try to put the e1000 module in full debug mode, but it only say the init msg. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): FedoraCore 4 and 2.6.15-1.1831_FCsmp How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot the computer 2. Optional : modprobe e1000 3. Actual results: The interface network Intel is not show by ifconfig and doesn't work. Expected results: The interace network Intel is show by ifconfig and working Additional info:

I've try with a 64 bit and 32 bit kernel but I get the same behavior
The problem comes from the Tyan MotherBoard S2895 and her bios. Inside the bios, if you choice something else than OS Intalled : Linux, the Intel ethernet card are no more detected.
