[U-Boot-Users] eth0 not geting enabled

[Avinash Vijayvergia]

Hi there

I am working on at91sam9260ek. I have put kernel and rfs on dataflash. Now this board boots up but doesn't enable eth0. I searched net and found that if I do a ping it enables phy (MD9161A). But if I do that when there is no network u-boot never recovers. Can someone tell me the way out.

Thanks
Avinash

What do you mean by 'u-boot never recovers'?  It should time out if you 
try a network operation and are not connected to anything useful.

I expected the same but it doesn't timeout. It just keeps tryingand I have to reset.

Are you using a old (really old) u-boot. This behaviour was observed
on u-boot 1.1.2, but when we upgraded to 1.2.0 and above, ping used to
timeout.

I have tried u-boot 1.1.5 and 1.3.0. They both don't timeout.
