Re: [microblaze-uclinux] xilinx sp305 board



I think you are on your own for the SMSC part.  That's the nice part about
the Xilinx IP Ethernet controller--it just works in Microblaze uclinux. 
While it might be conceptually nice to have the Ethernet MAC off chip, its
not clear to me what hardware IP would be used to access it.
