The virtex eth device is not the same as 4xx on-chip Ethernet, so
CONFIG_IBM_EMAC will not work. You need the xilinx_enet driver (which
is not in mainline). It might be in MontaVista's 2.6 tree.
I think people have posted patches for it to this list, so try
searching the archives. (I don't have a link off the top of my head.)
