I'm using a PPC440EPx with a Marvell PHY (same as on Sequoia). If I connect to 
a PC with a crossover Ethernet cable, U-Boot sees a link but the PC does not. 
The PC (running Linux) reports "Autonegotiation failed (remote fault)" and 
ethtool reports no link.

However if I let the PowerPC boot up into Linux, all of a sudden the PC sees 
link and pings start working. In fact, it works in Linux with a standard 
Ethernet cable, too (gigabit ports should be autosensing).

It seems U-Boot is not initializing the PHY correctly to handle a direct 
connection, but Linux is... any ideas? Everything works fine through a switch.

Thanks,
Mike
