I got problems to activate ethernet on Walnut ref board(PPC405GP) using Linux kernel v. 2.6.x

In linuxppc_2_4_devel(http://www.denx.de) environment, it works fine and
the ethernet is recognized from menuconfig setting below.
Network device support --->
  On-chip net devices --->
    [*] IBM on-chip ethernet (which is ported by montavista)
the source directory is drivers/net/ibm_emac/*

BUT in linux kernel 2.6.5, there is no source included(drivers/net/ibm_emac) and
no menuconfig option to select '[*] IBM on-chip ethernet '

Stock (kernel.org) 2.6 doesn't yet have an EMAC driver.

The linux-2.5-ocp and linuxppc-2.5 trees both have EMAC drivers (though
they are different drivers).

See http://penguinppc.org/dev/kernel.shtml for how to get the trees.
linux-2.5-ocp is at bk://source.mvista.com/linux-2.5-ocp
