Package: uboot-envtools Version: 20081215-2 Severity: normal when i try to use fw_setenv for the ethaddr variable on a Marvell guruplug, i get this error (mac address is anonymized):
0 r...@moo:~# fw_setenv ethaddr 00:f0:43:XX:XX:XX Can't overwrite "ethaddr" 1 r...@moo:~# however, i'm able to reset the variable from the uboot bootloader directly: Marvell>> setenv ethaddr 00:f0:43:XX:XX:XX Marvell>> save after which, the mac address does actually change (though i needed an extra reboot). So the source for fw_setenv seems to be unnecessarily restrictive. Thanks for maintaining uboot-envtools! --dkg -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (200, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: armel (armel) _______________________________________________ pkg-fso-maint mailing list pkg-fso-maint@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-fso-maint
