I read the arm-linux mailing lists and I saw similar discussions there. Now it's clear to me that u-boot shouldn't initialize the EMAC (MACB) registers with the MAC address. In the newer kernel releases ( 2.6.26 or newer ) there is a fix for the MACB driver and it can be used for boards that do not store their MAC address in a nonvolatile memory like an EEPROM. Thank you for your time and quick response to questions. Please consider the u-boot patch from the previous post for the next merge window.
