[CLOSED] Odroid C1 and MAC Address

Postby Screamy » Fri Jan 30, 2015 10:16 pm

I've notice that any time the boot partition is updated that a new MAC address is generated for the Network interface on the C1. Is their a way to keep a fixed/persistent MAC address between updates? I ask because I run DHCPD on my home firewall/gateway, where I assign static IP addresses to primary desktop computers, servers, etc based on their MAC.

I noticed in the /boot/boot.ini of other Odroid products that you could user setenv macaddress="some-MAC-address-Here", then reference this environment variable in the boot args at the end of boot.ini.

Will this work for the C1 as well?

We did have changed the mac address algo a few times because it was wrong for a few boards..

But that should be stable now and this behave you are telling shouldn't exist.
