Hi Colleen,

Looks like broadcom isn't loading at boot. Also, I'm not too familiar with
broadcom, but why must you load two modules? I found [1] which sound like
your problem (possibly the site you mentioned earlier) which references a
similar problem when tg3 is loaded before broadcom. You may have already
tried this, but have you tested changing the order in /etc/conf.d/modules?
