Hi Flavio u-boot should be able to write the MAC address in the correct part of device tree. Boards have been doing this a long time. Module parameters are considered bad. You should only do it if you have no other option. Here you do have another options, so it is going to be a hard sell getting David to access your patch. You will have more success by adding a call to eth_platform_get_mac_address() to the e1000e driver. Andrew
