Anyone have any ideas here. From what i can gather 6.2.1 has broken tg3 (used by broadcom and others). HP Microserver Gen8 relies on this for its HP Ethernet 1Gb 2-port 332i Adapter (2133). 6.2 and 6.2.1 use same kernel level driver. For now i have put in a PCIE Intel NIC but need to free this port up for SATA card
I have tried to recompile the drivers and add both to Juns loader 1.03b and manually (usr/lib/modules and .firmware + modprobe and insmod)
No joy, just get the following error in DMESG and insmod just hangs

Weird that the device is detected and driver assigned - perhaps driver is bad in this update? ifconfig shows nothing

Kernel driver in use: tg3
Comparing 6.2 to 6.2.1 i can see both are kernel 3.10.105 and make use of the tg3 kernel driver tg3.c:v3.132 (May 21, 2013)
