Can you quickly check if you have the right phy id written in your platform 
file for your board?

        Hi, 
        
        Downloaded 2.6.16.26 and booted up and got this : 
        
        / # ifconfig eth0 172.28.8.254 up

         such device 
        SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device 
        
        I had enabled all the PHY devices in .config and also tried only with 
Marvell phy enabled.

        It looks like your 2.6.12 kernel isn't handling the PHY correctly.   
        I'd recommend upgrading to something newer which has the phylib  
        (can't remember which 2.6 that went into).
