1 Hello,
2
3 Background:
4 I have a gentoo system with a fried ethernet (interface)
5 on an older motherboard. I installed a pci ethernet
6 card that works fine for years. Lately, udev and the
7 myriad of related upgrades, have made it so services
8 (sshd, cupsd, etc) are wigged out now. So I rebuilt the
9 3.4.9 kernel to removed all ethernet drivers except
10 the one on the pci card. All is fine with that.
11
12
13 New problem:
14 Udev renames the pci card from eth0 to eth3,
15 so cupsd does not work and the system comes up
16 with routing and the ethernet not set up
17 as it should from the /etc/conf.d/net file:
18
19 From Dmesg.
20 systemd-udevd[1519]: renamed network interface eth0 to eth3
21
22
23 So now that only one ethernet shows up, how do I prevent
24 udev from renaming eth0 to eth3?
25
26
27 TIA,
28 James
