Sorry for being a bit slow here, had other issues to deal with.
I've just tried this patch - applies fine, builds fine (prevents the
dc module from building, but I simply disabled that as a workaround).
Tried it with and without local-mac-address set and with versions 1.0.1
and 1.0.18 of the Netra boot PROM and it works the same in all 4
instances...
Works the same as Solaris 9, that is dc0 gets the hosts's MAC address
and dc1
gets that address 'plus 1' (see output below).
So in effect, local-mac-address is ignored but in a way that isn't
likely
to matter.
Oh, and I guess my earlier reading of the patch was wrong too, sorry.
Thanks for the patch - definitely better than hacking via an rc.d
script.
Pete.
