Right; I'm with you now.
I am currently working on this now, and if you actually have a
CLLF (I don't know how you would) the FEC isn't going to work
because of the faulty magnetics on the board (not RPCg fault, the
manufacturer acknowledged an error after we found it).  The new
CLLFs will be available within a few days.
No, I don't have one yet; I'm just building the kernel in eager anticipation
for when the new CLLF with 860T hits my desk.
What is fec.c.dist?  It seems like I am always fixing this one.
It's just what I renamed fec.c from the snapshot to before I hacked it.
I pretty sure I got it right in the 2.3.18 kernel.
I'm using the linux-2.3.18 snapshot kernel from the ftp site, which has it
wrong I'm afraid.
The CLLF will be built from the Classic configuration, so it
isn't appropriate to put this here.  There is also more that needs
to be added for the MII interrupts through a Port C bit.
I've reconfigured/recompiled my kernel for the Classic, but it sounds like it
won't Just Work(tm). I'm happy to alpha test any mods you're working on; once
the board & doco arrive, I can probably do some kernel hacking as well...

Thanks,
Graham
