I had the duplicate bug 272630 and consider myself lucky. I had the Intel NIC but had used Alpha 5. I only had the dmesg error and not the hardware eeprom failure. I had Alpha 6 ready to test until I found this bug thread. For folks like me, it will be a good decision to blacklist e1000e pending a resolution. Most 1st time Alpha testers would not be as lucky or have the time to seek out a full bug thread.
