Dear Mani,
I was testing the latest tip of u-boot and v2009.06-rc1, I find that the Ethernet is not working.
i assume you are using a board with SMSC911x ethernet chip? If so, this discussion may help you: http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2009-April/050687.html
SMSC911x (and others) do not work in mainline if no eeprom with MAC address is present. A patch solving this issue is (afaik) in net/next.
@Wolfgang/Ben: shouldn't this be in 2009.6?
best regards, Matthias
