HACK: Copy GbE region on gaze16-3060-b #47

Closed crawfxrd closed 3 years ago

gaze16-3060-b uses the onboard GbE controller instead of a Realtek controller. The device stores important information, like the MAC address, in a 8k region on the SPI flash at 0x1000-0x3000.

This is a just a quick fix. A more proper solution would be to read FLREG3 from the IFD to verify where the GbE region is.

Obsolete due to gaze16-gbe branch
