Hi, I have PCIe network interface card: NC375T PCI Express Quad Port Gigabit Server Adapter. It uses netxen_nic module. The problem is that it's detected every second boot. I noticed that the module and firmware are loaded correctly when it boots using certain SMP MP-table. When I see in journal:
then everything works perfectly, but when i see:
the NIC is not detected, loading modules manually with
doesn't bring it up.
Do you have any clue how can I force the system to boot from the working SM-table? I even don't know what these tables are. I tried every option for acpi boot parameter and a lot of related with acpi, apic, pci, pcie like:
