Hi
We're doing a port to 2.6.24-rc7, and we need to set up two ethernets with fixed phy's as they have phyless interfaces to a switch.
WE cannot find any good examples on how to do this. We've found the fixed speed PHY emulation in the configuration, but are unsure on how to set the PHY's up in the device tree.

This is using a 8280 cpu and ethernet on the FCC's
