There is no such thing as BIOS on this MPC8540 embedded system. I guess he is also using some bootloader which just gives full control to the linux kernel. Florian: Check the IP route chache flushes, as Eric mentioned. I'm working on the MPC854x as well. If you send me your scripts, I can give them a run here to gather more information. (I'm about to update my kernels here) Regards, Clemens Koller __________________________________ R&D Imaging Devices Anagramm GmbH Rupert-Mayer-Straße 45/1 Linhof Werksgelände D-81379 München Tel.089-741518-50 Fax 089-741518-19 http://www.anagramm-technology.com - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
