In the posting below, what does "sure" mean as an answer to question #3?
Are you really resuming this discussion after *nine* *months*? Wow!
(3) - My board uses the LXT972 as the Ethernet transceiver (PHY). Does the boot loader support it?
Sure.
The meaning of "sure" is: yes, it does.
I am porting U-Boot to a custom board that has an LXT972 Ethernet Transceiver (PHY). Should U-Boot support it without making changes to the code? If
In the first sentence you write that you are porting U-Boot - this already includes the answer to your question: any port requires making changes to the code.
changes are necessary, what are they?
We don;t know your board, so how could we know?
Without making changes to U-Boot, I am finding that auto-negotiation times out. Thus, I am wondering what "sure" means.
Yes.
