tskark running on the target will not show you the FCS. The Ethernet
hardware should calculate that as it sends the packet. Wireshark on
the PC might, but some Ethernet cards strip off the FCS before passing
it to the stack.
What is important here is the idea of a runt packet. You appear to be
receiving some packets at the PC, if we can trust the statistics you
showed. Are those received packets all big? Are the small ARP replies
missing?
