Hello,

I am trying to use a rig with Gigabyte GA-880GA-UD3H mother board and Intel 82574L based NIC (EXPI9301CTBLK) under CentOS 5.5. Unfortunately I have issue with the NIC - during boot it fails to initialize:

Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - 1.3.10a-NAPI
Copyright(c) 1999 - 2011 Intel Corporation.
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:00.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:02:00.0 to 64
e1000e 0000:02:00.0: Using NUMA node 0 for memory allocations
ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:02:00.0 disabled
e1000e: probe of 0000:02:00.0 failed with error -2

I receive the same result with the original e1000e driver from the distribution, the latest elrepo driver and the latest driver from Intel site (as seen in the example). I have tried also 2.6.37 kernel version - with the same result. The adapter however works fine under Windows (MiniXP from Hiren's BootCD) and with Ubuntu 10.10 LiveCD. Please help me resolve the issue. Thank you very much in advance.

That means that the driver is OK but PCI or device probe is failure.
