That's interesting. I've also sometimes had trouble getting a reliable link at 1000 Mbps. When I discussed this with Robert he hadn't yet seen the problem so I though it might be cable-dependent. (We are sharing the board but have used different Ethernet cables.) When I reconfigured my laptop's Ethernet port to only support 100 Mbps (ethtool -s speed 100 duplex full) the link became more reliable. > I am able to progress up to running the "starting kernel" message, > then my tests fail (they hang).? [...] So u-boot starts the kernel, but you don't get any kernel log messages? Are you certain that the device tree is loaded successfully? I don't know whether LAVA checks for error messages from u-boot. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings Software Developer, Codethink Ltd.
