[eepro100] Next Problem with eepro100

[Infinity2]

My problem is a little worse.  After a while, the server just locks up.   I
was patching the server from home Saturday night.  I lost the connection
once, then about 10 minutes later, it was available again.  About 30 minutes
later, I lost it for good.  When I came in this morning, it was locked up
tight.  When I looked at the messages log, I get the same message:

eepro100: wait_for_cmd_done timeout!
last message repeated 25 times

I'll try to get a diag output to see what it's doin.

Thanks!
Rob Spurlock
