I found the problem. I did a wrong connection (PCB) between common line 
of the magnetics to the ethernet-vcc line. This line has to be connected 
ONLY to the GND with a single 10nF capacitor only.

When connecting to a Gigabit Ethernet switch:

When connecting to a 100Mb Ethernet switch:

Right now, I have no 10Mb HUB but who cares? I will face the problem (if 
any) when somebody will point me this issue... ;-)

I would to thank everybody on the mailing list for all hints!

The next step is to calibrate the skew-rate of the lines (if needed) 
when facing some problems during high load transfer in both modes 
(100/1000) but for this I need to boot up in Linux first.

Next step is to connect a USB Disk and try to mount it...

Stay tuned! ;-)

Best regards,
Gianluca
