Re: [Gumstix-users] Help recompiling u-boot for SMC9117 (smc911x) driver

[Ian N. <ia...@ia...>]

Fixed my own issue.

For others who made need help getting their netwifi-microSD-FCC card
working in u-boot, do the following:
*remove the file buildroot/target/arm/u-boot/verdex/use-smc91C111-for-now.patch
*run make
*copy over the u-boot.bin image using the instructions at the bottom
of the section here:
