Do you HAVE to have an initramfs? If the bootloader of the platform correctly sets the MAC in the ethernet device, it would seem nice if the driver would realize that and leave it alone. Or did I misunderstand the issue and nothing on the platform contains a mac address? -- Len Sorensen ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ E1000-devel mailing list E1000-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/e1000-devel
