[U-Boot-Users] PCI cards known to work on the LITE5200

Hi,
I am currently using a LITE5200. There is a known (annoying) PCI issue with the MPC5200, and therdfore most of the PCI cards I have tried on the LITE5200 were not recognized. For several of them, u-boot even crashed (bus error). I was wondering if somedy has tried with success common PCI graphics cards and gigabit ethernet cards...
- I have tried 3 different graphics cards (2 ATI, 1 nvdia) w/o luck - also tried a SMC gigabit pci card (ezcard 1000), no luck
I have tried a suggested workaround, using an ICS574 to adjust the MPC5200 PCI clock signal from the PCI bus, but still no luck with the PCI cards I have tried (although it should work with the PCI SM712 eval board).
Thanks! Olivier Singla

For which card did it crash? And when exactly did it crash? Do you have a stack backtrace?

Define "common" ;-)
It works fine with the Fujitsu "Coral-P" PCI card - although this one is probably a bit expensive if all you're loking for is a graphics card.
It works fine with EEPRO100/1000 cards.

Are you really, really sure that these cards work at all in a PowerPC system?
