Hi Jan,
I used EDK 9.1 and I have the opb_emac ethernet controller.
I selected Xilinx 10/100 opb emac support in linux 2.6 configuration (device
drivers/ Network device support/ Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit) ).
Concerning sysace, you have downloaded linux 2.6 from denx or xilinx tree?
I will try creating xsa nodes . Hope that it will work.
Thanks
Xavier
