I just installed 7-STABLE on a new dual/quad machine based on a

The only word from the em driver is this
em0: <Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection Version - 6.7.3> port
0x3000-0x301f mem 0xde200000-0xde21ffff irq 17 at device 0.0 on pci5
em0: Using MSI interrupt
em0: Ethernet address: 00:30:48:64:d9:45
em0: [FILTER]
ifconfig doesn't show anything other than em0 and lo0
Can you give us the output from "dmesg" after a verbose boot, and also
the output of "pciconf -l"? Are the network interfaces on board, or
on a separate card?

Doh!
Turns out to be a hardware problem - when checking the jumpers I
discovered a transistor on the MB next to the failed nic that is too hot
to touch - new MB is on the way from Silicon Mechanics (who by the way
are great to deal with)
With hardware today I see so few dead components that I stopped checking
the obvious first.
