Oh right, we used `vmtouch` a long time ago when removing the `/boot` tmpfs. I'll have a look whether we can identify our build/config and in case remove it. Something...

`vmtouch` is now purged for everyone, if it is this old DietPi-RAMdisk replacement: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/commit/bdf526f

Does it help to add `ethaddr=02:63:3b:54:c3:54` to `/boot/dietpiEnv.txt`, to have this MAC address persistent?

And `eth1addr=8a:33:ce:b3:b0:b9` does neither, right? As an alternative until we found a better solution, you can add the following line below the `iface eth0` line in `/etc/network/interfaces` ```sh pre-up /bin/ip...

Ah, `hwaddress` is the option I somehow failed to find on the man pages. Yeah it will do the same behind the scenes, but is clearly easier and the more...

Jep, and as well `iface eth0` will be re-added when using `dietpi-config` to change network settings. So for now, use it once to setup network access initially, then add the...

First of all, on my Orange Pi 5, the MAC address is static: ```console root@DietPi:~# ip l 2: eth0: mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen...

So then the bootloader (MMC vs SPI) seems to make the difference. I use an SD card, hence MMC bootloader. There is no way to switch to the SPI bootloader,...

Regarding advenced options, a syntax error: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/commit/da7af8e I'll push a live patch: #7070 EDIT: Done, so `dietpi-update` should offer you a live patch to fix it.

Tested with (recent) SPI bootloader now, by erasing the MMC one: ``` U-Boot SPL board init U-Boot SPL 2017.09 (Feb 25 2024 - 00:42:52) Trying to boot from MMC1 Trying...
