Hi Dale,
The first thing I would check is connecting an RS-232 cable to see if
you can talk to the FPGA via tiny shell that way. This will also let
you run the ifconfig command to see what the iBOB thinks it's IP
address is, to make sure there's nothing funny with that. Are you
programming the FPGA directly, or the PROM chip for standalone
operation. I have found programming the PROM chip very unreliable, so
try just programming the FPGA itself first if you haven't. If
programming the FPGA works but not programming the PROM, I have found
that trying different versions of IMPACT will sometimes help.
