Sorry this is off the topic.

I am using Archlinux on Odroid C1+ and the latest kernel loads with no issue.
only issue is I have is the each time their is random MAC address so I
get new IP from dhcp server.
How can I avoid this. I have tried to enable eFuse driver but with no success.

On Odroid C2 I dont have any issue, it always retained the unique MAC address.

Best Regards
-Anand
