Ok, I have it mostly working now, but I could not use the u-boot from that guide and had to use the u-boot from TI Linux. The guide's u-boot worked, but my PHY was only working at 100mbit. It would link at 1Gbit and Linux would say that it's connected, but it would not get an IP through dhcp. As soon as I used the TI Linux u-boot, it worked fine at 1Gbit. I'd like to figure out what u-boot is doing to affect this? Any ideas? The TI Linux is also designed to run on the BBB. The only thing I changed in both is changing V_OSC to 25000000 from 24000000 since I am using a 25MHz clock.
Thanks.
