Its definetly newbie question, but..
HW: TS-7800, SW: Debian Lenny, kernel 2.6.30-rc7, i'm trying to setup NFS-root.
As i understand watching at ts7800_defconfig from TS ftp archive, this is 
options for network interface driver:
#
# Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)
#
CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=y
CONFIG_MII=y
CONFIG_AX88796B=m

The problem consist in that: when i try to boot custom kernel, 2.6.30-rc7 from 
this sources:
git://git.wormnet.eu/alex/ts78xx.git (i'm using: nand branch))
 i see:
[   27.270416] IP-Config: Device `eth0' not found.
and then of course:

[  111.052642] Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on 10.28.1.253
[  141.049927] rpcbind: server 10.28.1.253 not responding, timed out

[  201.077824] VFS: Unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy.
[  201.084874] VFS: Cannot open root device "nfs" or unknown-block(2,0)
[  201.091289] Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the 
available partitions:
[  201.099699] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 
unknown-lock(2,0)

When i'm building kernel, i included driver for ethernet chip (hard, not as 
module). First time i enabled:
CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=y
CONFIG_MII=y
CONFIG_AX88796=y
After unsuccesfull try i check that in manual written "gigabit eth", but this 
driver in "10/100Mb" subsection in kernel configuration, so i additionaly 
enable this options:
CONFIG_MARVELL_PHY=y
CONFIG_NETDEV_1000=y
CONFIG_MV643XX_ETH=y

Result same. Question is what driver should be enabled to use network chip on 
ts-7800?
