MAC address not retrieved (after 2 years stop) was created by Jocman
Hi.
After 2 years I went to my home made hobbystic cnc to realize a project.
When used last time, the machine worked perfectly.
But today, starting LinuxCNC, I got a message error then LinuxCNC quit.
Here you can find the message (only the Print File Information section):
Print file information:
RUN_IN_PLACE=no
LINUXCNC_DIR=
LINUXCNC_BIN_DIR=/usr/bin
LINUXCNC_TCL_DIR=/usr/lib/tcltk/linuxcnc
LINUXCNC_SCRIPT_DIR=
LINUXCNC_RTLIB_DIR=/usr/lib/linuxcnc/modules
LINUXCNC_CONFIG_DIR=
LINUXCNC_LANG_DIR=/usr/share/linuxcnc/tcl/msgs
INIVAR=inivar
HALCMD=halcmd
LINUXCNC_EMCSH=/usr/bin/wish8.6
LINUXCNC - 2.7.14
Machine configuration directory is '/home/joccnc/linuxcnc/configs/Prova01'
Machine configuration file is 'Prova01.ini'
INIFILE=/home/joccnc/linuxcnc/configs/Prova01/Prova01.ini
PARAMETER_FILE=linuxcnc.var
TASK=milltask
HALUI=halui
DISPLAY=axis

Shutting down and cleaning up LinuxCNC...
Running HAL shutdown script
Killing task linuxcncsvr, PID=2058

Removing HAL_LIB, RTAPI, and Real Time OS modules
Removing NML shared memory segments
As I can see, the problem should be the Mesa board MAC address.
I didn't make any change (configuration, setup or else) last time I used the system (2 years ago), so I don't understand what happens.
Honestly, I made a first try with ChatGPT (I know, not the best idea but at the moment maybe.... - moreover it looks to me AS - Artificial Stupidity - more than AI - Intelligence....), but its suggestions were totally useless (some changes to ini and hal files), so I resumed my original files (attached).
Currently, LinuxCNC keep quitting; LinuxCNC correctly connects to the MESA Board.
My OS is LinuxCNC 2.7.14 + MESA 7i76e (Hybrid stepper drivers)
Can anyone help me to fix it?
Thanks
Andrea

Whats does the command:
