Guys the etherboot users list is really the right forum for
this kind of question.

I don't know. When the link detection code was written it was tested
and it worked here. Except when the link really is not connected I
have not seen code like that fail forever.

appropriate driver. I do admit I have not tested 5.2 yet. But
I don't see why anything would have broken.

Hmm. I have once or twice seen the problem of fetching invariants of
the chip. But something is noticeably different from the tree I have
because I do not have an line that will print err=-1 in the tree I am
looking at.
