I am working on at91sam9260ek. I have put kernel and rfs on dataflash. Now this board boots up but doesn't enable eth0. I searched net and found that if I do a ping it enables phy (MD9161A). But if I do that when there is no network u-boot never recovers. Can someone tell me the way out. It is successful when network is available, though.

Thanks
