- Subject: [ECOS] RedBoot for Intel IXP425 platform
Dear gurus:
I have a question about Intel XScale IXP425 platform.
Once I can find the RedBoot_ROM.bin in the web site which provided by Intel...
And I try to install it to the target board and run well.
According to the RedBoot-document, Intel XScale IXP425 Network Processor
support PCI, Ethernet and flash. Well, if I use the
evaluation board, the PCI and Ethernet would be work perfectly during booting
RedBoot.
But if I don't use PCI and Ethernet card ( such as Intel i82559 ), the
Ethernet wouldn't work during RedBoot booting period until linux kernel
was loaded (because Intel provide ixp428_eth driver ).
My question is, how can I do in RedBoot package, and how to configure it to
enable ethernet function without ethercard?
I guess, it must to setup something such as MII interface in the XScale
Network processor ... right? But I have no idea to do so.
Please give me a hint.
regards.
Eric.
