Hi Russell, With your patch : - lubbock, mainstone and zylonite boards are working correctly => ie. all my boards are working correctly - the message "ifconfig: SIOCSIFHWADDR: Device or resource busy" is still there => this message is here even without your patch, so it's rather not relevant => this message is triggered by an "/sbin/ifconfig eth0 hw ether 08:00:3e:26:0a:5b" command So from a PXA testing point of view it's all good, ie. Tested-by: Robert Jarzmik <robert.jarz...@free.fr> Cheers. -- Robert
