    Does 2.3.99-pre8 have same problem or not?

    Very unfortunately, our machine hits the problem.
    When I installed four eepro100s into it, two of them output the above
    messages and other two didn't. Only two cards were able to work.

    What is difficult to understand is that different cards output the
    message on every booting.

    Currently I have not enough time to test, I booted only twice. During
    the first booting, eth1 and eth2 claims. In the second try, eth2 and
    eth3 claims.

    It's serious for me..
