Problem Description:
While attempting to perform some NFS testing, the error msg, "Bus master
arbitration failure, status ffff" is repeatedly printed to the console and
eventually the machine hangs up. An 'ifconfig' of the ethernet card shows the
number of receive and transmit errors increasing. I installed another ethernet
card (netsemi driver) and the message, along with the received/transmitt
errors, stopped.
Steps to reproduce:
Execute the test scenario defined at http://ltp.sf.net/nfs.
