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
