This is an easy problem to solve. Drop into ddb, and do a "show disk/device", e.g.: ddb> show disk/ad0s1b dev_t = 0xf000b444 This will return to you the dev_t for it. Take this value, and call setdumpdev(dev_t value): ddb> call setdumpdev(0xf000b444) The setdumpdev() call should return 0 for

Are you sure the duplex settings are correct on all nics? If they are on coax or a hub, it should be set to half duplex. If you are connected to a switch or a crossover cable, you may use full duplex on the nic only if the other end is set to full. I wouldn't trust any "Auto" settings until it
