Hey Tim,

I don't think you had the problem I had.  There was a line of Supermicro
SIMSO cards that had some type of "cold boot" problem.  In order for the
problem to be resolved, you had to unplug the machine and let the power
supply dissipate for awhile.  So I thought your problem could have been
the line of bad cards.

Yup.  I can't remember the kernel versions it corresponds to, but there
was an e1000 bug in the e1000 driver from about 6.2.15 to about 7.0.33.
