You can also Well, i tried ioremapping 0x10000, but without much success (cfg_addr/data is at cf8/cfc, and this magic stuff is at f118/f11c).

For indirect_pci ? Well... that's Nope, i checked, and it was trying to read the bus 0x10, while the bus is in reallity 0. That said, if i understood stuff correctly, it should be ok, since type 0 config ignores bus and device, right ? > a kludge, you should rather fix indirect_pci to use first_busno > instead...

I can't use indirect_pci for the second bus though. > (BTW. You should really work on 2.6, not 2.4...) Ah, yes, but 2.4 means suppoprt for debian-installer. Once that works, i will work on 2.6.x.

The Marvell Discovery II has (one, two or three) gigabit ethernets included, these do not appear on the pci bus, but need to be programmed directly with the NB registers. On the other hand, the sk98 driver provides driver for various Marvell gigabit ethernet. Friendly, Sven Luther ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
