Hi.
I have a IXP425 (IXDPG425 dev board) running u-boot [yay!] but I get the message 'No Ethernet Found' in the start up sequence. I would like to get ethernet working but I have been unable to find out what I should do so it happens.
When I used a pristine copy of u-boot, it wouldn't build for this target (couldn't make .depend in the cpu/ixp/npe directory or something similar). Since I had been building (snapgear) Linux using the Intel Open Access Library I copied IxNpeMicrocode.c from IPL_ixp400NpeLibrary-2_0.zip [ie version 2.0 of the NPE Library] into the cpu/ixp/npe directory. Admittedly this was just a guess as to what to do. U-boot now builds OK for this target, and I now have it running, but without ethernet.
Is there some doco somewhere that explains what to do next, or does someone have some insights to offer?
Thanks
