Yes, I know, I had set it to some bogus address but that didn't help
either...
Please check whether the bogus address is a valid address, that means,
the addr[0] bit 0 can not be 1.
For example: 3c:3f:35:28:44:61
the addr[0] is 3c, and (0x3c & 0x01) is zero, then consider it as a
bogus valid address.
How can the mac address be missing anyways, shouldn't that be fixed in
sillicon?
The MAC address can not be come with silicon. You should set it for your
product (need buy from IEEE).

I did the key combo when the usb was plugged in and now, not even uboot
boots up anymore, it seems to be completely blank now. When I launch
sam-ba as root (on Linux), I can only select Exit, nothing else is
enabled. "Select the connection" seems to be enabled but is empty,
nothing there to choose. Also dmesg doesn't show me anything on powert
reset... what else can I do from here? :o
First, please check the console output, it should be BootROM.
Second, which Linux distribution you are using? If use ubuntu 12.04, you
can see a /dev/ttyACMx device, sam-ba will access this device.
Thanks,
Ron
