Ugh. OK. How's this? (2 patches) (oh, OP mentioned CONFIG_PHYLIB but it's actually CONFIG_MII AFAIK) --- From: Randy Dunlap <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> pegasus and mcs7830 drivers use MII interfaces and should select MII in the same way that drivers/net/ drivers do. However, the MII config symbol should not be in the 10/100 Ethernet menu, so that other drivers can use (enable) it or so that users can enable it without needing to enable 10/100 Ethernet.
