Hardware:
Tyan S2723 (dual XEON)
[both NICs onboard]
Intel Pro/1000 MT Gigabit Adaptor (primary ethernet)
Intel EEPro/100 (secondary)
Software:
Linux 2.4.20
bonding patch 20030207
included e1000 driver and the 4.4.19 release from intel
Upon reconfig of the bonding interface the system freezes. I have not
been so lucky yo see a panic. I do know that it occurs when I run ifconfig.
If I do not use bonding, but do load both ethernet drivers I do not
experience any lockups.
Is anyone else using 2.4.20 bonding in combination w/ the e1000 or
better yet the Tyan S2723?
thank u all,

It's almost like dev_close was called without dev_open? Not sure.
Can you try this patch against e1000 in 2.4.20:
