Tim, Grant,

just an info.

Very often the Bestcomm-FEC crashed without any error logs if I initiate a transaction over FEC and save the file to disk (I rememeber I have read something like that). A restart of FEC don't work.
But no I figured out, if I connect to the other ethernet port of our board (natsemi) the FEC will awake to life again, if I initiate a new transaction over natsemi. This seems a little oddly to me.
Hans, what ATA modes do you see this problem in?  UDMA?  MWDMA?  Or
does just having the patch applied but still using PIO mode expose the
problem?

Thanks,
g.
