It looks like 3rd PCI slot of my motherboard is broken. It appears that 
trustix is able to detect that something is using the slot, but the 
device is not working correctly. None of the PCI network cards i've 
tried worked with this slot.

See also strange "HWaddr FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF" and "dropped:4294967284" - 
all NIC had it if they were installed into this PCI slot...

One more question:
Why latest TSL 3.0.5 beta2 (22.09.2006) doesn't support booting from 
RAID (1) device ? Installer is telling me that "Bootable partitions 
cannot be on a raid device"
