In a dual core 2 server with an intel motherboard and 5 network cards(two onboard) and 1 pci express card with two slots and one pci-x pci64 card the kernel sees all of them in dmesg but in mii-tool are misnumbered and one card is missing. (please CC as I am not subscribed to lkml)
please don't use mii-tool, ethtool is a much better option and actually works with gigabit cards.

eth0... um, I'm a little confused why every interface was named eth0 when it tried to come up. you didn't mention what kernel you're using. you can enable MSI and not share interrupts on this platform, it will at least help your PCIe adapters.
zeus ~ # mii-tool eth2: no link eth5: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok eth6: no link eth7: no link zeus ~ # it sees only 4 cards that are misnumbered and one is missing.
what does 'ip link' or 'ifconfig -a' show? Jesse - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
