I guess that easiest way to deal with it is to save blob from p54spi_eeprom.h into a file > 3826.eeprom in the same directory as 3826.arm and fix MAC address in it, according to comments in p54spi_eeprom.h > > These data for sure must reside on /dev/mtdblk1 partition, but they're probably somehow coded/obfuscated. > I couldn't find anything similar to MAC of my own n810 there. well, this is c0ffee comes from nokia's stlc45xx-driver. Unfortunately, they don't say how to get the device eeprom from the mtdblk1 partition. However, they certainly provide a tool stlc45xx-cal (available at: http://stlc45xx.garage.maemo.org/ ) which can be used to locate the eeprom's calibration data. and by the way. If there is no mac field inside the eeprom image, the driver will generate a random one all the time...
