Hello John, > Hello, > > Why would you have an unprogrammed i210 device/NIC? Did something happen > to the system the device or NIC was in?
No, this is how the chip is sold. ID 0x8086 0x1531 , unprogrammed. > What type of system is the i210 > in? Freescale i.MX6 , Designware 1-lane PCIe controller. > Since you are asking for an eepromARMtool I'm assuming that the i210 > is in some sort of ARM system. Is that correct? Yes. > Where did the system > come from? Custom system entirely. > Did you try to update the BIOS on that system? There is no BIOS on this system, just like on any ARM system. There's U-Boot 2013.10-rc4 and Linux 3.12-rc2 running here. The PCI BIOS stuff is emulated by arch/arm/kernel/bios32.c > Did you check > with the manufacturer of the system as to why the device has an > unprogrammed NVM? That is how the chip is sold. I guess I now need to program it to get it working?
