    ^--- Are you sure about this?

We are using this chip on our custom board and have the 91c96 on
CS3 and we define this as 0x0C000000

Probably different values in EEPROM and in environment.

Hm, is this hardcoded or sent by your BOOTP server?

I remember we had some problems with this also, but we tracked this
down to a compiler BUG (we use our own toolchain) because the macro
SMC_outb(d,r) in drivers/lan91c96.h did not correctly set the address.
When we updated the gcc everything worked fine.

I don't think this is the source of your problem.
I'd look in lan91c96.c, especially where the values of the
registers are written and read. Check the values you get in the code
and check the values of the registers with the BDI.

It works fine for us, in U-Boot and in Linux.

> Any comments are welcome,

It hard to say anything specific, because we do not have your
schematics to see how is the c91c97 connected to PXA.
