Re: [microblaze-uclinux] ETHERNET LITE not recognized

[Thierry BESSIERE <t.bessiere@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi John and Matt,

 

I recompiled the petaLinux kernel with the controller “Xilinx OPB EMAC Lite”. Now, this module is properly detected. It was just I did not know that EMAC LITE with a PLB bus had the same driver that EMAC LITE with an OPB bus so I chose the generic driver.

 

Thank you for your help

Hi Thierry,

Did you use the default .bit files that came with the Petalinux design or did you recompile the EDK project for your board?  Did you compile the reference design with the OPB Ethernet Lite core?  I know that I needed to actually install the core from Xilinx.  You can get it free from their website here:

The email they provide tells you how to install the core.  After that, I recompiled the reference design and ethernet support worked for me.



Hope this helps.  Thanks.

Matt
