[Etherboot-developers] TX Timeout

[Hamish G. <ha...@dp...>]

Hi,

I have been working on getting etherboot running on 486 type processors
under LinuxBIOS. The issue with the 486 is that it does not have tsc, so in
LinuxBIOS I have set up a timer ISR (in PMODE) and slightly modified the
etherboot code to use this timer.

Everything looks great except for the fact that I always get a TX Timeout -
this is with both tulip and realtek cards. In the instance of the realtek
card, I get the following:

tx timeout/error (0 ticks), status 0000 txstatus 0008024E

Any ideas please?

Regards

Hamish
