I am using Denx u-boot 1.1.3 for MPC 870 board. I ported it for our board with mpc870 processor and I got the u-boot (->) prompt.
UART interface is working fine but Ethernet interface (motfec) is not up yet.

There are at least two problems with your U-Boot 1.1.3 configuration:
#define CONFIG_ETHADDR OO:11:22:33:44:55 /* board MAC addr
*/
The first byte "OO" is two capital Os; perhaps "00" was the intended first byte of the MAC address?:
#define CONFIG_ETHADDR 00:11:22:33:44:55 /* board MAC addr */
#define CONFIG_IPADDR 10:10:10:2 /* board IP addr
*/
The bytes of a v4 IP number must be separated by "." (not ":"):
#define CONFIG_IPADDR 10.10.10.2 /* board IP addr */
Other than the above two suggestions, please try using a U-Boot version more current than 1.1.3, such as 1.3.x.
Sincerely,
Ken Fuchs
