[Bug 138611] Re: Sky2 ethernet failing randomly with Marvell 88E8056 gigabit

[Russ Price]

I dropped an RTL8169-based PCI card into the system and disabled the
Marvell controller. This solved the lockup problem completely - and it
also solved my problem with corrupted updates.

Now I'm debating whether or not to return the motherboard and get
something with a Realtek, Nvidia, or Intel controller on-board, or keep
the motherboard and get an Intel PCIe card so I don't have to waste a
PCI slot. The on-board Marvell is simply unusable.
