Have you tried to only `ifconfig ethX down` ? my own i965 board shuts down
perfectly fine without unloading the e1000 driver.
I can confirm that rmmod e1000 causes that machine can reboot gracefully.
Would you be able to debug a failed shutdown perhaps and capture the
console output? when exactly does it `stall` ? What other interrupts are
assigned on your system? Did other BIOS versions work correctly?
Up to version 0864 it restarts normally. Any higher version causes hang on
restart if e1000 driver is loaded.
I've tried to report it to Intel but they replied that Linux is unsupported on
this board...
It's not an issue in the Linux kernel. Using various printk I can see that
tripple fault or reset via KBD is issued and followed by hang of the BIOS.
For i965 chipsets, the BIOS is *a lot* buggy :(
that's depressing, can you send me the output of `dmidecode` of the latest BIOS? Perhaps
I can reproduce it myself with that version.
