Dear Alexey,
In message 1391179745.4721.36.camel@abrodkin-8560l you wrote:
Understood. I removed all my network parameters and will take a duty of cleaning up other configs.
thanks in advance.
The question then if CONFIG_HOSTNAME could be left? I see people rely on host name for selection (through name) of boot files (uImage, fdt etc.)
Yes, hostname is harmless - also in real life: it will not cause any issues on the network, if several hosts set (locally) the same hostname. Several boards with the same IP address or (even worse) the same MAC addresse are much more "interesting" ;-)
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
