Pradeep, I guess if you send the bootargs(after printenv) and the console output, some one in the community will be able to answer. By the way what do you mean Local area connection disconnected. Im sure connecting the board to network is not shutting of your host pc. Could you tell some more details on when this happens. Deepak

One more doubt that i have is: When we connect this device to a PC, the "Local Area Connection" should show status as "Connected". Right? But i find it "Disconnected"... i am beginning to wonder if this is hardware issue with this EVM board? How can i make sure of this? Please advise. Regards, Pradeep.

If you are using static IP address, remove ip=dhcp from your bootargs. You can also disable DHCP support from menuconfig under Networking Options if you are using static IP address.

The problem is when i bootup the board I get the following message "Sending DHCP requests...timed out! IP-config: Retrying forever (NFS root)....". I suspect it is something to do with the u-boot configuration? (I am not sure though). Can anyone please help me out on this?
