hi,

when you read the output I have pasted there you can see the following (also
in my origninal mail)
eth0: IBM emac, MAC 00:00:00:00:00:00

eth0: Found Generic MII PHY (0x00)

eth1: IBM emac, MAC 00:00:00:00:00:00

eth1: Found Generic MII PHY (0x01)


I think that this MAC addresses are crap (sorry if not formulated clearly
enough for you ;)
am I wrong ?

cheers, peter

hi,
 
i have problems with the IBM EMAC with 2.6.12.2 (the driver worked with
2.4.25)
running on ppc405EP octobus board. Cross compiled on x86 using the eldk-3.1
toolchain
