Hi Charles.
I couldn't get it to work correctly. I ended up having this in my
/etc/init.d/modutils file:
case "$module" in
\#*|"") continue ;;
LLADDR) ip link set $2 address $3 ;;
esac
Then at the bottom of the /etc/modules file I put:
! LLADDR eth1 00:02:B3:61:1E:0E
I also tried
LLADDR eth1 00:02:B3:61:1E:0E
To make it work I created a script that configured the MAC address set it to
start (S,S21) right after the networking get configured. This seems to be
working well, but I would much rather figure out why the modutils script
doesn't work correctly.
Have a great day!
Geoff

I guess this never got offically released (was part of the Dachstein
1.03 release that didn't quite make it, and I guess wasn't added to
Bering either).
The mod to /etc/init.d/modutils should work fine for you, however, and
can be found in the list archives:

While patch is unavailable on LRP, you shouldn't have much trouble
manually applying the diffs (just add one line to /etc/init.d/modutils,
and two comment lines to /etc/modules).
