Ok my stupidity amazes me :| . The checksum offloading I touched last 
time was actually "Check checksum on RX packets" ... I have disabled 
checksum offloading and everything works great... (with dontuse and 86 too).
About that second question (the cdrom doesn't show up in my computer) is 
it my fault or just not yet implemented?
Now considering the dontuse version is actually for testing should I use 
it? (it seems stable :-?? ) Or I'm better off with the 86 one. (I intend 
to do this on a production system now that it works)
