13 Looks like there's two rules pointing to the same
14 device:
15
16 # PCI device 0x10de:0x00df (forcedeth)
17 SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*",
18 ATTRS{address}=="00:e0:18:99:88:77", NAME="eth0"
19
20 # PCI device 0x10de:0x00df (forcedeth)
21 SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*",
22 ATTR{address}=="00:13:8f:33:32:e2", NAME="eth1"
23
24
25 From a forum I learned to rm the link eth0 in
26 /etc/init.d and make a new one, eth1 that points to
27 net.lo. So now the ethernet is up but there's still a
28 lot of complaining on the boot console, "can't find
29 eth0" etc.
30
31 BTW I was wrong about mii, forcedeth *is* the
32 appropriate module. The confusion arose because I was
33 expecting eth0 to be set up.
