Hello

I have a problem my custom board based on TCI6636K2H and SGII1 port is connected Marvell 88e111 Phy chip. not to use MDIO pin. and I use u-boot made for K2HK evm.

  • Hi,

    Have you tried booting the linux in nfs boot? Is it working fine?

    I understand that you have connected board and linux host directly. Is my understanding correct?

    I would suggest you to try with lower ethernet speed to check whether the issue persists or not.

    Thank you.

     

     

  • Hello

    Yes. I want to use network boot mode.

    I try to set several speed rate. I find  good mode.

     10Mb/Full duplex mode in my linux host is very good working.

    and Can I use 1000Mb mode in my board??

    Thank you.

    Regards.

  • Hi,

    I mean to change the ethernet speed rate of EVM by building the u-boot source.

    Thank you.
