NE2K driver forgets administratively set mac address #595

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
1. ifconfig eth0 down
2. ifconfig eth0 hw addr 00:01:02:03:04:05
3. ifconfig eth0 up

Then show interfaces again:
ifconfig eth0

and we see:
eth0    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
        inet addr:10.0.2.16  Bcast:10.0.2.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
...

Administratively set mac address 00:01:02:03:04:05 is lost, EPROM-stored mac 
address is used instead (moreover, eprom data are read wrong - only zeros).
