We have something similar already on Freescale parts, but it does sometimes cause problems. If the environment ethaddr is already set, it is left alone. Otherwise, the MAC address is read from EEPROM. So we could use CONFIG_PRESERVE_LOCAL_MAC to alter this behavior (i.e. always use the EEPROM). However, the current default is already CONFIG_PRESERVE_LOCAL_MAC, so can we change this to something like CONFIG_OVERRIDE_LOCAL_MAC? -- Timur Tabi Linux kernel developer at Freescale _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
