PS 2.6.28 did not boot: kernel too old. When was TLS introduced? I'll try to
apply the patch you mentioned in your other message.
I sometimes test network cards with busybox. It can be built without
linking in glibc and doesn't need TLS.
[ 130.870000] eth0: trigger_send() called with the transmitter busy.

Looks a lot like this problem:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/27774/
Yeah, that's a very likely culprit. Thx!
I applied the following patch and it works! apt-get update that is, there is
no sshd on this freshly installed system yet...
I also changed this line to have 4 underscores at the beginning:
{ 0xec940559, "____alloc_ei_netdev" },
it does not show up in git diff, so I am not sure if this is a leftover from
a previous checkout, or if it is also needed. And if it is needed, if it
should be two underscores or four or none, and if so why or why not...
Looking at the other drivers, there does not seem to be a lot of consistency?
thanks Finn!
