Hi, I've been trying to get CURRENT running on a TS-7800 [1]. It's based around a Marvell Orion SoC, with a Marvell 88E1118 PHY. It boots and tries to do bootpc_init. This fails because there are no packets coming in or going out. A few thing's I've noticed: - The PHY is misdetected as an 88E1116. Changing sys/dev/mii/miidevs so it's detected as the 88E1118 it really is doesn't help. - sys/dev/mii/e1000phy.c appears to contain a bug: e1000phy_reset performs a switch on MII_MODEL(esc->mii_model) while the rest of the code just uses esc->mii_model. This seems to be wrong as the cases for 1118 (or 1116) are not triggered. Changing this also doesn't appear to help. - Forcing the mge driver to IFM_100_TX (in mge_set_port_serial_control) does work. The system manages to acquire a DHCP address. - CURRENT does work correctly on my Sheevaplug, which has a Marvell 88E1116R PHY (at least, it's identified as one, I've not checked any further). Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this or what to try next? Kristof [1] http://www.embeddedarm.com/products/board-detail.php?product=TS-7800
