Hi to all,
to enable boot_linux to use a different network card other than the
default (eth0) you should
call it with the option -d ethx like this:
boot_linux -F -d eth1
To see the possible options for boot_linux invoke it with the -h flag
This is the result of the command boot_linux -h

DESCRIPTION:
This program is used to boot (and flash) a linux image to a box.
It tries to extract the required ETRAX 100 settings from the image file.
SYNTAX:
boot_linux [options]
OPTIONS:
-b <bootfile> : The boot image to use.
-d <device> : The network interface to use, default is eth0.
-f : Save the image in the flash memory starting at
address 0x10000.
-F : Save the image in the flash memory starting at
address 0.
-h : Print this help text.
-i <image> : The path and name of the image to use, default
is fimage.
-o <offset> : The offset in the flash where the flashing
starts.
-O <offset> : The offset in the image file where the flashing
starts from.
-p : Print the resulting etrax100boot command instead
of executing it.
-s <size> : How much to flash (default is the size of the
flash minus the offset specified using -o or
-f).
-S <size> : The size of the flash.
All sizes and offsets above can be specified as decimal numbers, or as
hexadecimal numbers by prefixing them with 0x. It is also possible to use
the suffixes k and M to specify kilo (1024) or mega (1048576).
Best regards,
Roberto Asquini
