I have a Supermicro H8DAR-T based server, that was happily 
running 6-stable from last year sometime. I swapped it out and
have been trying to get -CURRENT installed on it but it hangs
solid as soon as you configure the bge0 interface. The bge1
interface will work occasionally tho. To try and rule out a 
hardware fault I booted an AMD64-6.0RC1 cd that I had, which 
had no problems at all with the interface:

But the current snapshot from June, and from todays source
hangs solid as soon as you try to set up the bge0 interface.

As you can see, it hangs solid at "Setting hostname".

I've also removed the 3ware card "just in case" but it made
no difference. Latest BIOS too. I found some references to
a similar problem with bge recently too:

Anyone else seeing this?
