Program used - minicom /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 8N1. Identified as pl2303 
3-2:1.0: pl2303 converter detected by the kernel.
Used for connections: 3 routers with openwrt installed, cubieboard, 
cubietruck with Fedora 3.4.75 kernel ( jwrdegoede build ) with no problems.

Also had this problem with Pandaboard releases F19 and F20, became a 
habit to resize partition after installing image.

I thought (jwrdegoede) had pushed a modification to calculate/fix the 
MAC address, cannot remember if this was in U-Boot or Kernel.
I'm sure the cubietruck running Fedora 3.4.75 kernel ( jwrdegoede build 
) does not assign a new MAC address on reboot. Will have to check!

Looking at this again, it may be the kernel release had different 
version numbering, note the extra .1. after fc22
     kernel-3.16.0-0.rc6.git0.1.fc22.1.armv7hl.

Sorry, I was aware of this bug, I forgot to check in Bugzilla, also 
thought info would be useful to show the problem still existed.

The reason I'm following the progress of F21 for arm is I need a 
headless server on the cubieboard, with the cubietruck as a media 
server. All my other Intel/AMD equipment has F20 installed.
