[Bug 263555] Re: [intrepid] 2.6.27 e1000e kernel places Intel gigE chipsets at risk

[eentonig]

It's alpha software, people should be considered as being aware that
using it might break stuff.

Furthermore, people should be smart enough to read about the known
issues prior to installing it.

Yes a warning and blacklisting the e1000 driver should be done, but
revoking an alpha because of a (serious) bug just doesn't  seem the
answer to me, because it blocks you from finding other issues that might
bite people when the official release gets out.
