It is a custom board.
So I might have fucked up the configuration of the ethernet and serial
ports when going from kernel 2.2.5 to kernel 2.2.13. Actually it is likely.
8-) I never seem to get those kind of information accross files correctly.
8-) Besides the configureation of the ethernetport is partly automated (in
make config) so I definitly did something wrong in enet.c.
Actually it is so obvious that I don't know why I was bothering the list
with this.
Sorry about the noise.
K.D.

Is this a standard board from someone that I may have in my
office, or is this something custom?

Maybe, but you haven't provent that yet. If that is the case,
it would be nice to know :-).

We are providing documentation to others that may ask this
question in the future :-). I have been working with the 8xx
for several years, and it would be impossible for me to document
every little detail of every little problem I have seen over
that time (and I am not sure anyone would take the time to read
it if it was written). You have to ask the questions....it
isn't noise.

No, I am using Debian 2.1 i386 with upgraded Glibc to 2.1 as nfs server.
The problems are only visible with kernel 2.2.13 in the mpc823 board. If I
am using kernel 2.2.5 everything works fine.

I *bet* your NFS server is on a PowerPC system running LinuxPPC.
I have the very same problem here with all kinds of embedded 8xx
systems (823, 850, 860) and all different kernel versions.
Move the NFS server to another system, for instance an Intel PC
running Linux, and you'll be perfectly fine.
I have no idea *why* this is happening...

Hi,
I just recently compiled the 2.2.13 kernel for our custom mpc823 board.
Everything seem to work except that the network is really slow and
frequently there are nfs timeouts, e.g.
nfs server x.x.x.x not responding
nfs server x.x.x.x o.k.
Has anyone had similar experience and/or solution?
Thanks,
K.D.
