Re: trouble with FEC on MPC860T - FEC_INTERRUPT not going off?

FEC, and am now working on the kernel.  At the moment, I'm using the
2.4-2000-11-11 kernel from ftp.denx.de as a baseline, since it

This version of the kernel is derived from 2.4.0-test5 from July, 26.

OK.  Is there a newer one that's also friendly to 860Ts?  Some
others appeared somewhat different configuration-wise.  What base do
you use?

I have run into the same problem, and my suggestion  is  to  try  the
version  of fec.c I'll attach below (I've sent this to Dan Malek some
days ago, but haven't heard anything since).

I did, and it seems to work great.  It negotiated a 100Mbps
half-duplex after detecting the PHYs, and took off from there with
NFS.  I did need to hook up the interrupt line from the 972, as you
indicated.

Next week, I guess I'll be doing a CVS merge from your latest
ppcboot tree and see if I can get that FEC code to play.

Thanks for your help!
Dan
