[Buildroot] target ip address

[Buildroot] target ip address

[Naitik Amin]

Hi there,

Is there a menu option in menuconfig, where I can assign mac address and 
ip address, that the target will come up with ?

I understand, I can always do this , from within the interfaces file, 
under the skeleton.

Thanks,

No, there is not.

Rather than changing the skeleton, you should use the root filesystem
overlay feature, which is more appropriate than duplicating the entire
skeleton just for changing one or two files.

See http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#rootfs-custom.
