Check /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. Probably the old |
| 28 |
(fried) ethernet card is listed there (along with other stuff). Leave |
| 29 |
out everything except your PCI card (the MAC address is how you tell |
| 30 |
them appart). |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Worst case, delete the file (after saving a copy), and see if udev |
| 33 |
automagically solves everything by itself. |
