Hello,

I tried booting latest kernel on my CAPK-0100ND board and it seems to =
have some issues with initializing=20
ethernet: octe0 gets zero MAC address although proper MAC address is =
printed earlier:

Boot Descriptor Ver: 7 -> 1/2  CPU clock: 500MHz  Core Mask: 0
  Board Type: 11  Revision: 0/0
  Mac Address 00.90.FB.26.26.CA (3)



This simple patch fixes the issue:
http://people.freebsd.org/~gonzo/mips/octeon-mac.diff=20

I do not have enough experience with octeon's boot descriptor so I am =
not sure if it's a proper fix=20
for this issue or  it should be fixed in octeon-sdk sources. Could =
someone with more expertise=20
take a look at it?
