Thanks for the reply. I have removed the off-board tulip card, and it
seems to be running just fine now ...

Have had rsync running for about 15 minutes, and we've got 8GB of 100
across.

So, we should have the data across by end of the day so we can migrate
back from the temporary server (the purpose of the whole exercise was
actually to migrate the 5 36GB SCSI disks from a low-end server running
software raid to the new machine running with hardware raid without data
resorting to backups and without data loss ... looking good ...).
