Brand new iMac G5

[Chris Eagan]

We have a brand new iMac G5 and we are having trouble with the network
card drivers. It seems that they load and find the device okay, but
then setting an ip manually does not give access to the network. DHCP
fails to find anything as well. We have been working on this problem
at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94263 but nothing has worked
so far. I have included some information about the device here. If any
other information is needed, we have a cd that boots to a prompt on
the machine and would be happy to provide any needed information.

Thanks!

1. find /proc/device-tree -type d -name ethernet-phy
-> /proc/device-tree/ht at 0,f2000000/pci at 1/ethernet at f/ethernet-phy

2. move to the found directory.

3. cat compatible
-> B5461

4. od -x phy-id
-> 0000000 0000 60d3
   0000004
