[U-Boot-Users] IBM 440GP Ebony board: Gigabit ethernet adapter
Hi all
I have the IBM "Ebony' reference board with IBM 440GP processor. I want to use the Intel 1000/MT Gigabit Server Adapter as a network interface to load the OS image over the network. The adapter is connected to the PCI-X slot. I was wondering if U-boot has support for such an arrangement. If not then where can I find more help and if I were to develop the driver for this adapter myself, then how feasible would it be.
Help will be extremely appreciated.

It's a routine job for some of the developers on this list, and out of reach for others. Sorry, but I don't know your level of experience.

I have a working e1000 driver (via Etherboot via Linux Intel driver) for ppcboot on PCI (not PCI-X).
I haven't submitted it back to the list as we're still using ppcboot 2.0 and I hadn't taken the time to do the "port" the driver to u-boot yet.
I'll try to do that in today, if I can...
no promises on pci-x, though... -Mark
