I am running LINUX 2.4 (Arabella distribution) on a Free Scale Reference platform EP8248 (from Embedded Planet). The baord has two Ehernet interfaces. One of the Ethernet interface is used for nfs file system on another host.

When I configure a bridge and add the Ethernet Interfaces to the bridge, system hangs saying "connection to nfs server lost".

Please let me know how do I correct this problem. (Since LINUX 2.4 has no issues to have IP addresses for interface attached to the Bridge, not sure why this is creating problem)
