<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I'm using a Sandpoint board with
X3 (MPC8245) unity CPU card. Sandpoint does not have an ethernet
controller.And since I have a PCI DECchip 21x4x Ethernet controller I want
to use it with sandpoint board. I'm able to use this ethernet card with my
linux image, it works fine, but I couldn't add this to u-boot image. So I'm
dowloading the linux image by using "loadb" or "loads" commands via serial
channel and it tooks to much time. You can see my previous tryings below.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Is there anybody who has used
this ethernet controller with Sandpoint? Or do you have any suggestion for my
problem. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Regards</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>P.S:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Below, there are previous
messages between I and <FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Wolfgang. Since
I was not aware of using this list I have sent e-mails directly to Wolfgang.
Thanks to him for his recommendations about the problem and warnings about
using this list.</FONT></FONT></DIV>

Yes you are right I should have used the mailing list. Thank you for<BR>>
your warning.<BR><BR>Ummm... so why aren't you using it in this case?<BR><BR>For
future messages please use the mailing list.<BR><BR>> >Enable CFG_CMD_NET

I have tried you recommendations about how to add Tulip driver. But I<BR>>
couldn't succedded. Here what I have done exactly and, what results I
have<BR>> reached.<BR>> <BR>> I think, by the "board
configuration", you mean<BR>> u-boot-1.1.1\include\configs\Sandpoint8245.h
file. In that file,<BR>> CONFIG_NET_MULTI had already been defined.
Then I have defined the first<BR>> two ( CFG_CMD_NET, CONFIG_TULIP). Then
firstly, I have run the command "make<BR>> clean", secondly run "make
Sandpoint8245_config", And finally, when I have<BR>> run the command "make
CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_82xx-" I have received an error,<BR>> saying that
definition of CFG_CMD_NET was dublicated. OK, since it seems
to<BR><BR>Maybe I was not clear enough. "CFG_CMD_NET" is not
a #define you<BR>should set yourself; you
should make sure that "CFG_CMD_NET" is<BR>included (i. e.
used) in your definition of the
CONFIG_COMMANDS<BR>definition.<BR><BR>>
So as a result, my DECchip Ethernet card is still not working with<BR>>
u-boot. (Or I couldn't make it work somehow!) Would you please help me
about<BR>> where am I wrong. I can enter this subject in mailing list, so
some other<BR>> people can use this help.<BR><BR>sorry, I'm afraid I cannot
help. I don;t have any Tulip based network<BR>card here, so I cannot test this
myself. Please ask on the mailing<BR>list.<BR><BR>Best
