Which exact version of U-Boot are you running? How did you set "ethaddr" in your U-Boot environment? > Where and how should I initialize the FEC adapter in the > linux kernel initialisation.

Normally U-Boot will insert the right MAC address into the DTB and pass that to Linux. BTW: you are off topic here. No part of your problem is in any way related to the ELDK. You should post questions like this on the linuxppc-dev or similar list.
