(I did not get to complete the message!)
For those of you who are running into this error:
        24520:01 not found
        eth0: Could not attach to PHY
        IP-Config: Failed to open eth0
        IP-Config: Device `eth0' not found.
There is a bug in recent kernels. I found it in 2.6.28.7:
        linux/arch/powerpc/sysdev/fsl_soc.c:
for_each_compatible_node(np, "mdio", "gianfar");
should be:
        linux/arch/powerpc/sysdev/fsl_soc.c:
for_each_compatible_node(np, "mdio", "gianfar")
Note that the semicolon should not be there!
