Hi Mike,

What is your reasoning behind this?

MAC randomization should not be the default mode for boards. where does this
board store its MAC address in general ?

on the bf537-stamp, we use the last sector of the parallel flash to store the
MAC so that it is saved across u-boot/linux updates and recovery.

Currently we keep the MAC as u-boot variable 'ethaddr' and pass it to Linux using the boot comand line.

Best Regards
Dimitar
