Re: eth0: PHY id 0x00221619 is not supported! HELP

Hi, Garcia!

Well, it's usually not a big deal to add your phyid to the driver.
Maybe some generic support is sufficient for your needs.
Check the datasheet of your Board and the PHY.
When you are sure you use an unsupported PHY, read the *phy.c of
your driver and add it. YMMV

Just FYI, I attached a (quick and dirty) patch to add an Intel LXT971 PHY to
the gianfar driver. The LXT981 is a 100Mbit PHY on the gigabit capable TSEC
of a mpc8540 cpu.

Greets,

Clemens Koller

Hi everybody,
We are developping a custom board which uses a ppc405EP and on which one we'd like to load a linux hardhat.
During the boot process, we're getting error messages about the ethernet PHY. That is really annoying cause we plan to moubnt the file system via nfs. So no ethernet no NFS...
Could someone give us a tip and tell us if the messages displayed before seem to be normal cause we had to modify some part of the kernel in order to get Linux booting.
What those ethernet messages mean? Everythin seems to happen in the "ibm_ocp_enet.c" eand "ibm_ocp_phy.c" filesPlease help....
