A little bit more information.

I can bring up a nr0 device by doing

/sbin/ifconfig nr0 up 192.168.0.10

But any attempts to set the hardware address fail.

/sbin/ifconfig nr0 hw ax25 KE6I-10 192.168.0.10

Give me

SIOCSIFHWADDR: Invalid argument


I don't think it works this way, because netromd then
tells me "no NET/ROM ports defined"
