I read the lengthy thread about unstable MAC addresses on the
Cubietruck from September. However I'm still a bit confused about
what I need to do to get a stable MAC address.
Firstly my CT appears to have a non-zero SID:
01c23800: 16516501 80808955 54494848 0500f05c .eQ.U...HHIT\...
I'm using the following uboot and kernel, both supplied by Fedora 21
as far as I know:
U-Boot 2014.04 (Aug 19 2014 - 00:11:39) Allwinner Technology
1: Fedora (3.17.4-301.fc21.armv7hl+lpae) 21 (Twenty One)
There are a few peculiar warnings at boot (see end of email), but
otherwise it appears to work.
However I don't get a stable MAC address. It seems completely
random on each boot. Today I've had:
96:0c:ca:a9:c7:08
7e:68:c9:80:b8:01
ca:ea:b6:64:7b:5b
Any ideas?
You need the 2014.10 u-boot, from the look above you have 2014.04, the
AllWinner support for A10/13/20 is all upstream as of 2014.10 so you
should just use the builds we ship in Fedora 21+ and you'll have all
you need.
