Is there any way i could do this with ethtool? It only allows force
spd/dplx , but not set it for advertising...

Not currently.  That would be a nice feature though... :)


If i do as follows other side reports 1000/FD:

ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg on


Which is what I would expect.  I have to step away for a bit, but if
no one responds with how to load the driver with auto-negotiate
advertising only 100 Full Duplex, I will do so when I return.
