I did a small mod in uboot now. After each ethernet-access the interface chip seems to get a soft reset, which deletes the mac address in its registers.
So in smc911x.h (!!!!) in function smc911x_reset I commented the line // smc911x_reg_write(dev, HW_CFG, HW_CFG_SRST); It is somehow pitty that kernel (even latest) and uboot doesn't match anymore. As I coudn't find out how does the kernel usually know the mac from, I don't know what part is responsible. Thanks all of you for your help. _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
