Hi there,
could we introduce an ATAG_MAC or ATAG_ETH_MAC so we can pass the MAC
address for the ethernet controller from the boot loader to the linux kernel
using the ATAG mechanism?
I don't want to pass "MAC=..." as a commandline though.
Thanks!

Linux does not use any ATAGs on PowerPC.
Wrong list?
