Getting Started

This section assumes that the reader is aware of how to configure the Linux kernel through menuconfig or similar. The reader can refer to Andy's tutorial here: http://rcs.uncc.edu/wiki/index.php/Getting_Started_with_Linux for more details.

Configuring Networking Device Support

  • The on-board physical layer (PHY) - Marvell 88E1111 - should be configured to RGMII mode in order to interface LLTEMAC RGMII.
  • When the reader is configuring the Linux kernel, go to:
 Device Drivers --->
   Network device support --->
     Ethernet (1000 Mbit) --->
  • check Xilinx LLTEMAC 10/100/1000 Ethernet MAC Driver
  • check MARVELL 88E1111 using RGMII in Xilinx LLTEMAC PHY Support (MARVELL)
  • Configure other device as usual depending on your design.
