RE: [ethmac] bit order



Of course phy get nibbles from mac,but mac have to deliver nibbles to 
phy in the correct order and must calculate the crc so he must to order 
the data nibbles in lsb to msb order and the crc in msb to lsb order, at 
least in 802.3, and i suposse that in ethernet ii dix also. I think that 
reordening the bits is a mac mission not a phy mission, phy only trasmit 
bits he donīt reorder them. 

Thanks
