Hello Benjamin,
This is kiran here. I'm working on 440GR (Yosemite) board to boot linux-2.6.13.4.
Everything works fine execpt for MAC address. I saw the code in arch/ppc/platforms/4xx/yosemite.c; the code to copy the MAC addr from board info structure seems to be in place. I am  using IBM emac driver written by you.
Linux boots up fine and  in the booting messages , I see that the MAC addr is displayed as all zeroes. Also, the ifconfig displays the MAC address as all zeroes.  

Could you please throw some light on the same. 
What could be the issue? Do we need to modify the driver for MAC address issue??


regards,
kiran
