Ideally this is handled by the boot loader, but that requires being
able to update
it.
The mv643xx Ethernet driver is happy if it finds the MAC address
already in the hardware. The vendor uboot often does this. Does tftp
boot work in uboot? That would indicate it has access to the MAC
address.
The u-boot is really limited and I am transferring new images over
kermit. Tftp is not enabled.
