Login as root then type netsetup You will then have option to set up static or dchp.... If that's what you are trying to do. Good luck Kj6nro Allstar 29262 On Dec 1, 2013, at 9:09 PM, "Bob" <kk6ecm@gmail.com> wrote:

OK... found it and I figured it out.
Edited /etc/network/interfaces
ADDED the following at the end of the file:
hwaddress ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
After rebooting, the "permanent" MAC address is on the card, so it now acts as a hardware MAC on bootup. Saved the SD card image as my new baseline backup for Pickle should I mess something up :-)
Now I can set a static address in my router for the Beagleboard-xM.
Still learning as I go

Is there a way of setting the MAC address on a Beagleboard xM with Pickle
Linux? The Beagleboard xM MAC address is generated each time it boots to a random configuration.
