Description Paul Pathiakis 2004-02-07 08:30:15 UTC
	Upgraded machine from 5.1 to 5.2-RC1.  Everything went smooth.  However, after rebooting, the re0 card which I was attempting to install with the release (works find on 5.2) decides to start giving resets and doesn't respond.  I switch back to the rl0 card I was using (RealTek 530TX+ which also works fine on 5.2) and it is now detected as an xl0 card.) is also giving hardware resets and not responding. (Yes, I changed all the required settings in /etc/rc.conf.)  
	Next, I go to reboot and the machine syncs the drives, prints "Rebooting" and hangs.  It has to be hardware reset.  

	Everything worked fine on 5.1.

Fix: 

Unknown at this time.  (Gulp... please help!)
How-To-Repeat: 
	I did a simple upgrade that I've been used to performing on the OS.  I downloaded what I thought was 5.2 release from the cvs repository at ~8:30 pm EST on 2/4/04.  I performed a:  make buildworld, make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC, make installkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC, rebooted to single-user, mergemaster -p, make installworld, mergemaster, exit to multiuser.  This was performed on a straight 5.1 install with Vinum volumes.  Everything seems ok on the machine right now except the network drivers aren't working and I have to power cycle the box to if I reboot.

Work Around:

	I finally booted off a 5.2 CD I had.  I did a binary upgrade.  (not something 
I like to do).  Everything came up and ran fine, including the cards.  (BTW, 
I forgot that the xl0 was the onboard that I keep as a backup and don't use).  
However, both the re0 and the xl0 cards were now recognized and many other 
"issues" seemed resolved.
