    Hello,

     When I boot one of my modules, it goes straight to the losh prompt and I get the error:

     

     

    losh> ifconfig sm0 dhcp
    readEEPROMmac: eth buffer empty???
    resetMAC91C117: readEEPROMmac returns -7
    MAC EEPROM not programmed! Programming to default address.
    Please reset the board for this new default MAC to take effect.
    Waiting for link to come up...
    Link failed to come up!
    error: ifconfig: no active network interfaces
    losh>



    I'd like to begin troubleshooting this by programming the EEPROM for the MAC IC. How can I get this file?

    Thank you,

    Stephen

    The EEPROM is programmed at the factory. I will send you a private e-mail to collect some more information from you.
