Hi John,

I tested the blades on the AMD platform with the Embedded NC370i Network
adapter and it works fine under 6-stable. I was wondering if there is any
patch that I could apply under 6-2 release for that network adapter. The
reason I'm asking is because we are talking for 3 servers 2ns and 1mail and
it would make me feel better following the release branch.

Thanks again,

George Kontostanos

That should work with bce(4) in 6.x-stable.
