I think that to make it work I need to update cpm8xx_t inserting the fec2 
filed. Is this true? Could I use the 8xx_immap.h of a 2.6 kernel?

Bye,
Antonio.

Not exactly. I think you can borrow the structures from 2.6, but do a triple-check that the result offsets are the same.

I think I will use the 8xx_immap.h borrowed from u-boot-1.1.4, it is really 
similar to that of 2.4.25, with some explicit padding and fec2. Do you think 
that porting fs_enet to 2.4 is it the best way to have both FECs working on 
a MPC875? I don't want to use 2.6.

Bye,
Antonio.

Sounds reasonable, but I'll repeat:
fs_enet patches for 2.6 used to support 2.4 thing(via #ifdef's), it was cleaned up close to submission. IIRC, it handles 2 fecs quite great on my 885ads, so it worths to search around a bit before hacking...

Hi,

I'm a novice and I don't understand what is "IIRC". Is something that 
handles the two FECs on 885ads? I knew that on 885ads the second ethernet 
was realized via an SCC and not FEC. Am I wrong? 

Bye,
Antonio.

That is too funny! "IIRC" is an abbreviation for "if I recall"
