8 years ago --- Quote Start --- I am also seeing the problem where my MAC address is randomized on reboot. I have tried setting the ethaddr in the uboot environment, but it appears this variable is not being passed to the llinux kernel. The ethaddr variable in the uboot environment remains the same after each reboot, but the MAC address assigned to this interface by linux is random. We are running Angstrom v2014.12 on the Arria 10 SoC. We are using the reference design from rocketboards. Do you have any idea why this is happening? --- Quote End --- I have found that setting the local-mac-address in the .dts file has set the mac address correctly. For some reason Angstrom does not seem to read/use variables from uboot at all.
