[U-Boot-Users] MCF5249 support in u-boot

Hello,
I just started using u-boot on a Coldfire MCF5249 board. Could anyone let me know how to choose the Ethernet driver in the u-boot configuration?
Also, is there anyone who has used the u-boot 1.1.2 successfully in a Coldfire MCF5249 board?
Thanks. Kit.

Please correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think the MCF5249 has ethernet build in. So you would have to connect an external ethernet controller.
Also, is there anyone who has used the u-boot 1.1.2 successfully in a Coldfire MCF5249 board?
Yes, I did. You can find the "TASREG" board which uses the MCF5249 in the current CVS (please don't use 1.1.2, use current cvs).
Best regards, Stefan

Hello Stefan,
I used the external ethernet controller RTL8019 in my MCF5249 board. How can I choose the Ethernet driver for my board?
Thanks for your help. Kit

What do you mean with choose? You seem to have chosen already: the RTL8019. So no choice left. :-(
You probably mean how to integrate the driver for the RTL8019 into your U-Boot image. After scanning through the source code I found that a driver for the RTL8019 exists (drivers/rtl8019.c). But this driver does not seem to be used by any board in the current cvs. So try to integrate the current driver into your U-Boot port and fix possible problems.
Best regards, Stefan
