James,
I notice the following:
- ncr53c810-0 io address 0x6000
- i82557 PCI Speedo IO address 0x6100
- ncr53c810-1 io address 0x6200
I did not see any hard error reported by the ncr to your syslog.
I donnot have the source of eepro100.c rev. 0.23.
The IO window of the i82557 just between the both ncr boards ...???!!!
I would prefer to see ncr1 at 6100 and i82557 at 6200, but the PCI BIOS
has decided so.
Is it possible for you to remove a ncr board in order to have something
like i82557 IO address >= ncr address + 0x100 and to give a try?
I will be surprised if it is a burst problem since the driver uses
the same burst length and dma features as the SDMS BIOS does.
However, you can try some lower value, for example:
- ncr53c8xx=burst:0,specf:n (burst disabled, dma features disabled)
- nrr53c8xx=burst:1 (2 bursts)
etc ...
Gerard.
