Hi all,

i have still a last issue open on mcf5307-based "amcore"
board i would like to fix, and need a suggestion:

at design time, i wired the 32bit parallel data bus from cpu to
the ethernet chip as "straight" (D0 to D0, ... D32 to D32).

dm9000 driver btw works for little-endian cpu only. To have it
working, i actually keep a byte "swap" patch in the driver.

Since i guess i cannot pretend any driver patch for this case,
i am planning a new pcb version with 32bit data bus bytes swapped
in hardware.

What do you think ?

Thanks,

Best regards,
Angelo Dureghello
