There were no changes specifically to e1000e between -128.1.6 and -128.1.10, so this is a bit odd. Is there a particular ring size between 1500 and 8982 that seems to work as close to 100% of the time as far as you can tell? I'd be curious how consistently exactly 4000 or 8000 worked. Also seeing: e1000e: probe of 0000:05:00.1 failed with error -2 and no presence of eth1 at all. I'll try 1500 a bit and see if that makes any difference. Has 5.4 been tried and does it resolve this problem? Several errors related to the system PHY that produced failure like this: e1000e: probe of 0000:04:00.1 failed with error -2 were fixed in RHEL5.5. There were a few other times when we have seen this error that were fixed with BIOS updates. Please update to the latest kernel and re-open if that is still broken. |
