Hi

OK, it seems the ethernet chip is working, but bootp/dhcp is not yet. When
I enable net_debug, I get sent back all the packets that are picked up on
the network so it seems the chip is functional.

Initially I am running in polled more (INTS_DONT_WORK mode) as I need to
fix my interrupt controller.

this is the chip setting and a tcpdump log
// sar10.ee:tc=.uct-53:ha=0x0040d800429c:ip=137.158.133.235
static unsigned char enaddr[] = { 0x00, 0x40, 0xd8, 0x00, 0x42, 0x9c };

tcpdump: listening on eth0

Is it possible that we are just missing the packets in polled mode? The
network currently has a LOT of traffic on it, I'll have to try set up a
private network as well.

Can anyone tell me if the above responses look OK.

thanks
