Re: Sequoia EMAC only works if u-boot initializes it?

["Steven A. Falco" <sfalco@harris.com>]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2370 bytes --]

I've attached a copy of my bootlog.  I added in one patch to enable 
rgmii but that didn't fix it. 
(http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2007-October/043435.html)

I am curious why the new emac driver is enabled in the DENX tree but not 
in the upstream trees.  Has DENX successfully used this driver on the 
Sequoia board?  Am I trying something that is known not to work?

I'm interested in helping in whatever way I can.  I need ARCH=powerpc to 
use the current Xenomai patches, and I need both EMACs so I can evaluate 
bonding (for high-availability).

    Thanks,
    Steve
