I have a CentOS 5.2 install on a machine with the Marvell nic issue outlined in http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=2612. I have a few questions regarding this, what does the # echo "11ab 4364" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/sky2/new_id line do? Obviously it starts right after but what specifically is the "11ab 4364" part? Also, how do I get this to load across reboots? I have the alias and module in my modprobe.conf but that is not enough.
11AB 4364 are likely the PCI Vendor/Device IDs.
indeed...
http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/iii/?i=11ab
shows thats Marvell, and that DeviceID 4364 is the 88E8056 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller
