<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-AU style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I have a Debian v 4 gateway server that only run a
firewall and exim4 mail. This morning out of the blue both NIC’s
failed to load on reboot. What I get now is device not found. If I
run lspci I can see both nNic information and in dmesg I can see both Nic as
eth0 and eth1. Yet at the end of the bootup the error message states that
neither card load with a device not found. If I issue ifup eth0 same
error message. If I rmmod and modprobe it loads the driver. I’ve
replaced the NICs and tried a different slot nothing seems to help.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
