The bug is in u-boot.  it currently starts the ethernet port before  
the receive buffer address is initialized.  this results in receiving  
packets into memory 0 and overwriting the vector table.

I'll wait to see your response to Havard's email regarding setting up  
the MAC Address in u-boot.

thanks, wilson
