u-boot has "eeprom" command ? But I cannot find it! as I got MAC addresses don't match. Can u-boot allow me to change HW MAC address?

Hi,
No, you must erase the flash region where the MAC address is stored.

Your reply does not answer the OP's question and is incomplete or wrong.
The OP asked about the hardware MAC address, but you are probably talking about the "ethaddr" environment variable, which is a very different thing.
Also, if the "ethaddr" is write protected or not depends on your board configuration.

Dear Daniel When I use "NFS" command in u-boot, I got:
Warning: MAC addresses don't match: HW MAC address: 00:00:00:00:00:00 "ethaddr" value: 00:50:C2:42:B2:62
How can I find the right flash region where the MAC address is stored ? (and then modify the data) Do I need rebuild u-boot or linux kerenl?
Best regards.

kabbin,
I already answered you on linux-omap-open-source and you ignored my reply. Why? Again, more detailed. Your omap2420h4 board uses smc91x compatible chip. This chip uses 128bit serial eeprom to store configuration. This configuration includes MAC address. Default configuration is load after chip reset. In U-Boot, you set MAC address directly into LAN registers (ethaddr), but eeprom remains unprogrammed. Linux driver resets chip. Program eeprom with valid MAC address. See for example board/voiceblue/eeprom.c source.
Best regards, ladis

The set of available commands depends on your board configuration. Probably the eeprom command is not selected in your board config file. Eventually there is even no EEPROM on your board at all. We don't know - it's your hardware.
as I got MAC addresses don't match.
Then set it correctly in the environment.
Can u-boot allow me to change HW MAC address?
Yes, on some systems.
eth0: Invalid ethernet MAC address. Please set using ifconfig
But this won't help you. You still need to implement a way that the Linux driver sets a correct MAC address. Solutions have been posted on the ARM mailing list. See the links and suggestions provided before.

Wolfgang Denk

... FAQ ...
How can I use the correct MAC address?
Set it. Either in the driver, or in user space.
I have read the FAQ, so maybe there are some problems on linux kernel side. http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/EthernetDoesNotWorkInLinux
Indeed.
I also reference to http://lists.arm.linux.org.uk/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2004-July/023579.ht... But I still have no idea how to deal with it.
Maybe you should read the ARM mailing list archive. And follow the advice you there on your posting on that list.
And stop posting the same questions to several mailing lists. That's a violation of netiquette.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
