Ethernet problems on armStoneA5

  • When using the standard vybrid-multiplatform-linux-f+s-V0.1.tar.bz2 release, there are some issues with the ethernet access. Here is a patch for U-Boot that fixes these issues.



    Go into the top directory of the U-Boot source and enter


    Code
    1. patch -p1 < u-boot-ethernet-fix.patch


    Then recompile U-Boot and update U-Boot on the board. You also should clean the U-Boot environment after having installed the new version because one of the changes is in the default environment.


    Code
    1. nand erase.part UbootEnv


    After a restart, the new default environment will show up. It adds ethaddr to the boot arguments, so you might have to call


    Code
    1. run bootnfs


    or

    Code
    1. run bootubi


    again.
