15 years agoHi,
--- Quote Start --- When I try to configure eth0, after having given eth0 a sane MAC address, the system hangs: ifconfig eth0 up same story with ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.190 --- Quote End --- At first, please check the access timing of DM9000A. When I set these values according to the Wiki's recommendation,
Slave Adressing : Registers
Units : ns
Setup : 0
Read Wait : 40
Write Wait : 40
Hold : 0
the eth0 would not respond, but the system did not freeze. Now I set these values like
Slave Adressing : Registers
Units : ns
Setup : 10
Read Wait : 10
Write Wait : 10
Hold : 10
with 100MHz system clock. Kazu
