Hi Wolfgang, > I still fail to understand why you would need fixed network settings. > Evenin emergency cases, the only parameter you really need is a MAC > address, all others can be fetched for example from a DHCP server. bootp/dhcp should work for getting the ip address. My initial thought was that you need to hardcode the ncip anyway, which means you need the ipaddr etc, too. Using DHCP and setting the ncip to the delivered serverip should be ok, i think.

Note the "random" - hard- > coding the same address for all devices is definitely a No-Go. Is 02:00:00:RR:RR:RR, where RR is a random byte, ok? -- Michael _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
