440GX EMAC driver hang?

Hi,

I am doing a Linux 2.6.11.11 port for a CPCI board with a 440GX
processor on it.  Previously, I had successfully ported 2.6.11.11 to the
board's predecessor running on a 440GP processor.  Due to limitations in
this version of the PCB, EMAC ports 2 and 3 are not connected.  The
standalone kernel comes up and gets into a BusyBox shell.  When I try to
ifconfig the eth0 interface, the messages "eth0: Link is Up" and "eth0:
Speed: 100, Full duplex." are displayed and then the target hangs.  I
used the OCOTEA port as a pattern for my 440GP->440GX conversion.  The
PHYs which are connected to EMAC ports 0 and 1 are the same PHYs as on
the 440GP board (running in RMII mode).  I have tried to use the
function "ocp_remove_one_device" to whack EMAC2 and EMAC3.  I am pretty
sure that the removal worked as I no longer see init messages for those
EMACs (previously I saw all four devices get initialized).  The MAL
reports that it has "Initialized, 4 tx channels, 4 rx channels."  I used
the function "ibm440gx_set_eth_grp" to force the Ethernets to both group
0 and group 1 configurations.  So far, nothing has worked.  Can anyone
think of anything obvious that I am missing?  I know that the Ethernet
ports are functional as I used TFTP with our ROM monitor package to
download the zImage file.


Thanks,

Scott
