EricÂ’s driver code works on redboot without any change. I did not modify his 
code.

Did the following:
1. Extracted the rltk8139.tgz <revision 3>
2. Copied the files under devs/eth/i386/pc/rltk8139/ into 
devs/eth/mips/atlas/rltk8139/
3. Changed all reference made to i386 to atlas <my MIPS platform name>
4. Included the following #define in devs_eth_atlas_pc_rltk8139.inl to solve 
the cache coherency issue:
#define CYGPKG_DEVS_ETH_RLTK_8139_SOFTWARE_CACHE_COHERENCY
5. Included this package in ecos.db & created a new redboot_rltk.ecm <that 
included this package instead of the existing onboard one>.

I rebuilt redboot after this & it worked fine.

Cheers,
-Mike.
