I seem to get a lot of problems with an nfs root fs on tx4937 board. I haven't looked at it closely yet, but I guess its some problem with the ne2000 driver. I wanted to know if you know anything about this.
Please look at:

With a quick glance of ne.c, it seems ei_status.stop_page should be changed to 0x60 on the board. Please confirm its value.
Yes, this seems to fix the problem.

This is really strange place for that #ifdef -- 'wordlength' is determined much earlier in this function (and stop_page is set to 0x40 for 8-bit case), shouldn't #ifdef be moved instead?
