ok, I will change it

ok, I will drop it

I would like to have support for following devices in defconfig for digsy:
- LXT PHY
- RTC DS1337
- EEPROM AT24
- MTD partitioning based on OF description

If you dont mind I can add them to generic mpc5200 defconfig, otherwise
I think that separate defconfig is needed.

I will update port config and clock settings in u-boot and use mpc5200_simple
instead of creating a new file for digsy.

BTW,
I noticed that there are some problems with mounting file system
over NFS on Linux-2.6.29-rc3, I see following messages:
...
[  339.813807] nfs: server 192.168.1.1 not responding, still trying
[  339.832144] nfs: server 192.168.1.1 OK
...

I haven't noticed in on Linux-2.6.29-rc2. Is there any known problem?

regards,
Grzesiek
