True USB plug and play experience

[David Reyes Samblas Martinez]

Hi Lazlo
I was trying to follow your tutorial of USB plug and play but I have a doubt,
How did you find the UUID and the MacAddress? last  one I guess if the
HWaddr of usb0 interface if you do Ifconfig from the freerunner  but I
don't know where start to find the UUID thing.
Regards and thanks a lot for the Tutorial :)

> What are the achieved features you may ask, here it goes:
> * manually assigned IP to the freerunner (no DHCP wait)
> * each freerunner recognised and separate name is assigned to it. (ie.
> when I plug my freerunner in my laptop, it displays "Laci's moko")
> * a script is executed when the freerunner is plugged in
>  (it set up the iptables rule currently for the network, but it will
>  (in the future) also auto-sync some stuff with my laptop))
> * I can access the internet from the freerunner without problem (no
> need any manual command typed in the terminal)
> * Each freerunner is recognised individually, and the appropriate part
> of the script is executed
