Hi, We are using MPC8272 based target board, we use montavista Linux version 2.6.10 kernel image (with NFS enabled) to our target board, Our board has 2 FCCs (eth0 and eth1). bot the eth's works perfectly when we use them independently, but when we are trying to enable second one after the kernel is up using linux command "ifconfig eth1 192.168.33.64 up"(IP address)nothing is working. Please suggest how to enable second eth (either 0 or 1) once the kernel is up with NFS file system Thanks & Regards MANJUNATH AM Senior Software Engineer Emsys Larsen & Toubro Limited Mysore-570018 Mobile:9886375926
