Re: A Cry for help (OpenBSD 2.7 firewall based on I810e chipsetcras hing) Dmesg and all hardware details included. (Long Post)

Collin,
I don't know if this is the root of your problem, but I had a machine that
would get the "watch dog timeout" errors using a digital chipset clone
card (Netgear). It is my understanding that some of the cheap digital
chipset clones are not that great. Anyway, I fixed that by replacing my
cheap cards with intel cards.

Also there was a thread a month or so ago regarding the i810 chipset. You
might want to check the archives. Hope this helps.
