I have started to get a problem with my raspberry Pi running raspBMC. If I power up with the ethernet cable connected then it will get to the Raspberry Pi Logo and then go no further. If I leave the cable out the system will boot ok, but on plugging the cable back in the system crashes and goes to a black screen.
I have tried alternative power supplies to try and rule out that as a problem but have had no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Re: Raspberry Pi crashes when plugging in ethernet cable
Never heard this one before is the Pi fully encased? Is it the power supply cable possibly loose? Or your touching a component when plugging in the cable. I don't know if it's possible to be faulty in this way. Does the device your plugging the other end of the cable into provide power. Known as PoE?

Re: Raspberry Pi crashes when plugging in ethernet cable
You've tried a different cable?
Or re-used the problem one elsewhere in your network without problem?
