Subject: [U-Boot-Users] Ethernet and detecting MAC addresses
Date: Wed, 07 Apr 2004 12:18:04 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4073E36C.8000901@mpc-data.co.uk> (raw)

AFAICT from the source I'm using (1.0.2) none of the ethernet drivers
bother with detecting their own MAC address (if available) and rather 
rely on hard/soft coded addresses. Is this an intentional by design, or
just something unimplemented as yet? If this is something I can implement
for our board here, does anyone have pointers for where is best to splice 
it in without upsetting anyone? :-) I already have a really untidy rough 
and ready hack that we use internally to do this that works, but I'd like 
to implement properly if possible. 

Best Wishes,

Dave Peverley
