Hello everyone.
I have an unusual network problem. I just downloaded and compiled 2.3.49
kernel and it seemed to compile with no problems. I used the configuration as
my previous kernel compilations (I did it so many times, that I remember it).
However, when I boot the new kernel, this is what happens:
dmesg:

That is all correct - I do have AS200 4/233 with these network cards, just as
I configured (advanced router with netfilters). At this point I get a data
light on my cable modem. Then the RH6.1 starts the scripts and right after the
lines:
>Bringing up interface eth0: [OK]
>Bringing up interface eth1: [OK]
the light on cable modem goes off. Then after I login I can't ping either
networks (internal nor external). I did recompile the kernel with verbose
messages and that's what I'm randomly get:

The rest of kernel seems to work flawlessly, I don't get any error or core
dumps when accessing fs.
Apology for this long message, but if you know what it can be, please help
me.
Thank you in advance,
Arc C.
