But what error are you getting?  What are the symptoms of your  
problem?  The GMII interface (the 8-bit bus) is inconsequential to  
PHY configuration and management.  Only the MDC/MDIO bus is used.   
Therefore the PHY id should be quite readable.  What version of Linux  
are you using?  Please describe what the kernel prints out when you  
boot, and when you try to bring up the interface (assuming you don't  
do that at boot).
