[U-Boot] Help with u-boot & linux on walnut based board.

[Brian S. Park]

Hi all,
I'm having trouble witn my network interface under linux and need 
some help from the experts here.
My board is based on IBM walnut (PPC405GPr) but uses a different phys 
chip. It is using DP83848 instead of DP83843. The network seems to 
work find in u-boot (both 1.3.1 and 1.3.4) but the linux is not 
getting the MAC address correctly. The address is set in u-Boot but 
the linux reports 00:00:00:00:00:00 I'm using linux kernel 2.4.25. Do 
I need to use kernel 2.6 to use the newer phys chip?

Any pointer would be appreciated

Thanks.

Brian
