The problem is this:

When I use bootp/tftp boot, on the host if I do arp then I can get
root@Jeff linuxppc_2_4_develubpatch<366>arp
Address                  HWtype  HWaddress           Flags
Mask            Iface
7.1.1.5                  ether   00:40:49:FA:43:59
C                     eth1
7.1.1.6                  ether   00:04:AC:E3:1D:62
C                     eth1
10.1.1.171               ether   00:A0:C5:E0:C4:EC
C                     eth0

Which 7.1.1.5 is my BDI2000 and is not part of our discussion.

But if I bootm directly from flash, it will be
root@Jeff linuxppc_2_4_develubpatch<366>arp
Address                  HWtype  HWaddress           Flags
Mask            Iface
7.1.1.5                  ether   00:40:49:FA:43:59
C                     eth1
7.1.1.6
(incomplete)                              eth1
10.1.1.171               ether   00:A0:C5:E0:C4:EC
C                     eth0

I doubt that when kernel brings up eth0, it doesn't broadcast MAC
address?

I am still hacking the kernel code.... and getting headache on this
problem...
