Re: ATAG for MAC address???

In message [off-list ref] you wrote:

could we introduce an ATAG_MAC or ATAG_ETH_MAC so we can pass the MAC
address for the ethernet controller from the boot loader to the linux kernel
using the ATAG mechanism?

I don't want to pass "MAC=..." as a commandline though.

Linux does not use any ATAGs on PowerPC.

Wrong list?

Best regards,
