Hi, I too had a similar problem with our custom 440GX board - this week in fact. It would DHCP, mount NFS then keep on reporting that the server was not responding. I eventually tracked it down to the fact that we are running a single MII phy and the phy map was not being setup correctly by my port. As soon as I changed this in the arch_setup it has worked ever since. BTW it is linuxppc 2.6.8.1,RevC 440,100BaseTX,busybox root. This may not be Hiroshis problem but thought I would add to the conversation...
