I experienced similar issues yesterday when just installing release 5 from
ftp (floppy boot). I essentially had to ifconfig the device down and then
back up and it then seemed to continue ok... but I think there most likely
something odd going on :/

I have had the same problem with a 3Com 3c905B-COMBO. But the system
was a 4.7-RELEASE. If you used the the media-Option in /etc/rc.conf it
doesn't work. It was necessary to boot the system with a wrong media
type, mark the interface down and mark the interface up with the correct
media type. Than it works. But at that time I had no time to analyse
this behaviour.

Here are the old boot messages (no errors):
