Re: No ethernet card with Olimex Lime 2

[Jared McNeill <jmcneill%invisible.ca@localhost>]

Hi --

There are some board specific GPIOs that need to be configured, so I 
wouldn't expect the Cubieboard kernel to work out of the box.

Detailed info for bringing up the board below. Quick fix for your ethernet 
problem, comment out lines 801-806 of awin_machdep.c:

  http://nxr.netbsd.org/xref/src/sys/arch/evbarm/awin/awin_machdep.c#801

The Olimex Lime 2 has gigabit ethernet, so "phy-type" of MII won't work. 
The default (RGMII) is likely what you need.


To support the board properly, you have two options:

 - Boot the Cubieboard kernel with a FEX script from the Olimex Lime 2.
   Hopefully this will work, but it really hasn't been tested beyond the
   boards that we already support. See
   http://wiki.netbsd.org/ports/evbarm/allwinner/#index6h1 for details.

 - Add support for the board in the tree. For this you need:
   - A kernel config (use CUBIEBOARD as a template) that sets
     BOARDTYPE="olimexlime2"
   - Add the board type to arch/evbarm/awin/platform.h:
     #define AWIN_olimexlime2	6
   - Setup board specific GPIOs in arch/evbarm/awin/awin_machdep.c#617
     (awin_device_register).

Cheers,
Jared
