Re: [U-Boot] Can't connect to PHY, BCM5461

Hi!

I have a modified MPC8360 platform with a PHY named BCM5461 and UEC as Ethernet Controller. I started with the MPC8360EMDS card from U-boot and then modified it so that it match the card (what I know). I am using the git-version of U-boot from October, 20, 2008. The problem is that I can't even get contact with the PHY. It says it's a generic phy, but even with that I can't get any contact to it and the phy_ID u-boot prints is just 0.

"UEC: PHY is Generic MII (0)" "warning: FSL UEC0: timeout on PHY link"

Hereafter the u-boot just hanging..

TIA Simon

What does the MII command tell you about your MII bus in general and your PHY's registers?
