Yes, it just didn't work ;-) I don't have a board here, but can post the error message later tonight. In fact I was wondering about that already, maybe it's worth investigating this further. But aside from that I think the MAC address calculation based on the SID serial number does not get triggered without an alias, so we need this line anyway.
