Arhhhh, it was due to USB 1.1 limitation
itself(8347 USB 2.0 driver wasn't added 
yet when I posted it). Only on the 
workable 8248 target with USB 1.1 driver, 
it would have such a phenomena. There was 
even a network error displayed. If working
with USB 2.0, no any problem. New to me:-)

But Well, I don't have the guts
to say this is a kernel's bug:-)

OK, stay on relax, pls.
