how to change the MAC address of RTL8139

i bought a second hand mini-itx motherboard.
while installing linux, i found the mac address was ff:ff:ff:ff:ff.

although i can use the command below to change the mac address after
installing linux, but it isn't convenient to me.
(for example, i can't upgrade packages while installing linux)

ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55

there is a program named Pg8139.exe, people who use 8139 A/B/C chipset
can use it to change the mac address stored in EEPROM of NIC.

you can download from:

hi,不好意思,我有些問題想跟你請教一下。
我電腦是L310(Toshiba),我查我的mac address 時,有線的是FF-FF-FF-FF-FF。
無線則是有MAC Address

我重灌過情形還是一樣,請問有什麼方法可以解決嗎??
