On a FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE #8: Fri Nov 12 09:37:11 CST 2004
box with the following hardware :

	bge0: <Broadcom BCM5782 Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x3003> mem 0xf8400000-0xf840ffff irq 20 at device 2.0 on pci5
	miibus0: <MII bus> on bge0
	
	brgphy0: <BCM5705 10/100/1000baseTX PHY> on miibus0
	brgphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseTX, 1000baseTX-FDX, auto
	bge0: Ethernet address: 00:11:0a:40:d2:dd

I get the following errors, however, although it states that there is no
carrier, there is.

	bge0: firmware handshake timed out
	bge0: RX CPU self-diagnostics failed!
	bge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
	        options=1a<TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING>
	        inet 131.185.40.211 netmask 0xfffffc00 broadcast 131.185.43.255
	        ether 00:11:0a:40:d2:dd
	        media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
	        status: no carrier
	
	Mounting NFS file systems:bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting


Here is ifconfig(8) output after fully booted:

bge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        options=1a<TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING>
        inet 131.185.40.211 netmask 0xfffffc00 broadcast 131.185.43.255
        ether 00:11:0a:40:d2:dd
        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active

Seems odd enough, to email the wizards about it.
