Ok, so... |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I just realized that my current/existing 70-persistent-net.rules syntax |
| 17 |
is different from the 'old format' referenced in the udev upgrade news |
| 18 |
item. I have: |

Note the 'DRIVERS==' and 'KERNEL==' items that are not showing in the |
| 32 |
news item example for the old format, as well as the LACK of the |
| 33 |
'ACTION==' item... is this dependent on the interface type? Or is mine |
| 34 |
'wrong' (and just has been working by accident all these years)? |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
So, now I'm even more confused. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
If I just want to totally disable the new behavior and keep the old, I |
| 39 |
know I just add 'net.ifnames=0' on the kernel command-line, but... |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Do I just rename the above file to something like |
| 42 |
'70-my-net-names.rules', keeping the content the same? |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
Or do I need to edit the lines? And if so, to what? Do I remove the |
| 45 |
'DRIVERS==' and 'KERNEL==' items and add the 'ACTION==' item? |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
Do I change the eth0 to net0 (and create the symlink and update |
| 48 |
rc-update as discussed earlier)? |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
crap-crud... |
