Hi ! Remove ethernet support is not the solution for the customer. He only wants not that the default IP-configuration of redboot could make problems when he sells the board to someone other. He wants to have a Ip-Address in redboot which could not confict with other IP-Adresses, but the only one which I know was 0.0.0.0 all other Adresse "could" confict. how do others do this with redboot? they leave one static Ip-Adress and if there is a confict, the confict is only a very small time (boot of redboot) which make no problem ??? regards manfred -- Before posting, please read the FAQ: http://ecos.sourceware.org/fom/ecos and search the list archive: http://ecos.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss
