Hi, <br>
<br>
I already managed to get IRQs assigned for my two NICs. As happy as I
was about that I asked for a IP to test if the board works correctly so
I booted with coreboot into my suse 11.2 made a ifconfig and saw that
i've got a valid IP, Mask everthing set up fine through DHCP. But I'm
unable to connect to whatever I can't do pings, navigation just
nothing. I of course did pings with ip addresses to see if it maybe
only a DNS issue but its not, the weird part is that the DNS servers
get well configured by the DHCP server. <br>
<br>
I did test with the factory BIOS and I get the exact same network
configuration and it actually works. <br>
<br>
The only difference I could see are shown below:<br>

I have no idea what possibly could be wrong so I'm open and grateful
