Thanks. With "no longer activate the ethernet interface" I assume this
means you can identify an earlier kernel revision which did not cause
the problem?

Two questions:

First please try to boot with the most current version available in
Debian unstable (6.16.11-1 right now), to see if the problem persist.

Secondly if you are able to pinpoint a range where the kernel
regressed, it would be great if you can bisect the changes between
those versions (if you need instructions let us know).

Regards,
Salvatore
