Hi list,
is there anyone out there successfully using the SMC 91C111 ethernet
chip
on AMD's DBAU1200 eval kit? In my setup here, it's working fine from
within
the YAMON boot loader so I can use it to download a kernel image via
TFTP.
The kernel (bleeding edge linux-2.6 mips-GIT) detects the device as well

eth0: Ethernet addr: 00:00:1a:19:11:8c
and is able to mount its root filesystem via NFS. However, the
communication
does not seem to be sufficiently stable, messages like this occur
regularily:
nfs: server 192.168.1.200 not responding, still trying
nfs: server 192.168.1.200 not responding, still trying
As the machine acts as NFS server for several other linux embedded
systems,
I don't suspect it to be the problem. Also, things like cables etc
have been
properly checked.
Before I'm starting research, I'd like to know whether this is a known
issue or whether there are any mandatory settings I missed.
Thanks for any hint,
Daniel
