Now my Ethernet is working! It only need to be set with ifconfig eth0 up end begin works! Thank a lot for the help; Now I need dhcp support to my board be possible get its IP from our tftp server. I can't found dhclient command on the target board. Also search for appropriate network package to be installed via make menuconfig but was impossible to find such a packet. Can you help me again?
