And the same installation? So as far as the system is concerned, you have |

changed the network card (on-board cards appear as PCI devices). |

No, it thinks you have changed the card, and eth0 was allocated to the |

old card. |

Yes, but then udev sees that eth0 is already allocated to another card so |

makes this one eth1. Just delete the file as mentioned previously to have |
| 23 |
udev forget about the old card and start again with eth0. |
