SOLVED!! MAC address not being set

SOLVED!! MAC address not being set
So I've changed my Dallas chip and my Indy R4600 now boots happily without all the shenanigans.

However I am unable to set the MAC address using the setenv -f eaddr ... as it says that eaddr is read only.

I can modify the address individually but although the memory stays modified the MAC address is not updated. This suggests either
1) I'm an idiot and misunderstood everything
2) The MAC address is not at the location expected.

Any ideas?
