Dear all, We are customizing U-boot for the embedded planet ep8260 reference board. I am working on customizing Ethernet in Uboot. The ep8260 reference board has the LXT971 Fast Ethernet chip. After customizing the code for Ethernet i tried doing an external Loop back test. Changes i made in the function u-boot-1.1.1/cpu/mpc8260/ether_fcc.c/eth_loopback_test(void)->
1.I changed the FCC to FCC3: #define FCC_START_LOOP 2 #define FCC_END_LOOP 2
2.I added a few extra printf for debugging purpose.
After connecting my board to the HyperTerminal and giving the command "elbt" i see the following messages: **************************************************************************** *** Net: FCC3 ETHERNET BEDBUG:ready => elbt FCC Ethernet External loop back test Initialize FCC channels: 2inside transmit: values are aa inside transmit

Can anyone please tell me how i can remove the 4 rxerrs and get the same data that i have transmitted.
