Hi there,

I got my custom board with a MPC855T up and running.
FEC is working fine. MII/MDIO interrupts are working.

If I disconnect my board from the hub, I get

eth0: status: link down

When I plug it back in, I get

eth0: status: link up, 10Mbps Half Duplex, auto-negotiation complete.

BUT when I plug it into a 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch (namly D-LINK DES
10160) the link  does _not_ come up again!

This also means that I can't boot linux via bootp/tftp.

Any idea? Anyone?

Thanks in million!

Steven
