[eepro100] EEpro100, Red Hat 7.1, wait_for_cmd_done timeout errors

[Jim Hribnak]

Not sure what to do.. the perplexing problem is I have another server
running RH 6.2 and the same NIC and the SAME 1999 driver by Don, and this
has WAY more IP addresses on it the the one I am having problems with and no
problems (server been installed and active for 3 or 4 years) This newer
server is only since Jun/Jul 2002 and only has about 30 IPs bound to it.

I have to find a fix, thank gawd someone was still at the office.. I had
them reboot it, and I did not have to spend 30 mins driving in (one way)
just for a quick reboot.
