Hi Samuel,

Check your OpenBootProm settings.

printenv boot-device.

that will very likely show "boot-device net disk" ...

change that to boot-device disk (or disk1 or whatever alias you are using).

Or, if that isnt the case, check the value for tpe-link-test?

If that is true, set it to false.

Or, just always have a cable connected which coes not even have to lead 
anywhere :)

Have a look at:
