Hi there,
I'm using the system provided by Microtronix for their Ethernet - USB extension. I need the USB from it. Yes, both SMC and DM9000 are set since the Stratix has SMC and the Microtronix kit has DM9000, and it didn't help setting one of them off. Neither of the ports work.
One thing I'm suspecting now is that a previous image that I made using Nios II IDE is somehow reserving the ethernet ports for itself. I use the uClinux dist according to the NiosWiki now and it seems the images created this way load to different parts in the memory, even though the hw selections are the same. I haven't been able to erase the old image that I made with IDE. Is there some way to do it? Pressing "Factory config" on the board or using the factory_recovery images didn't do it.
A little explanation: If I load the new, linux-made image with "nios2-download -g zImage", I am able to start on this new image. However, once I switch the power off and back on again, nios2-terminal starts the old kernel. This thing is starting to bug me big time...
