In fact, you may have a firewire connection, and that is being |
| 47 |
recognized as eth0, try adding "nofirewire" to your kernel boot line, |
| 48 |
and check if eth0 will be your network card again. Also, there was a |
| 49 |
similar problem on the list a few days ago and the OP of that thread |
| 50 |
asked for UDEV rules to set names to its interfaces, check the |
| 51 |
archives. |
