OK. Is there a newer one that's also friendly to 860Ts? Some
others appeared somewhat different configuration-wise. What base do
you use?

I did, and it seems to work great. It negotiated a 100Mbps
half-duplex after detecting the PHYs, and took off from there with
NFS. I did need to hook up the interrupt line from the 972, as you
indicated.
Next week, I guess I'll be doing a CVS merge from your latest
ppcboot tree and see if I can get that FEC code to play.
Thanks for your help!
