Well, believe me or not, but I had "empty" (only comments) file |
| 15 |
/etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-name-slot.rules : |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
------ |
| 18 |
# Udev 197 and above has implemented predictable network interface names |
| 19 |
... |
| 20 |
# To activate this function, move this file to a name that doesn't end |
| 21 |
# in .rules, or remove it then reboot your system |
| 22 |
------ |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
And I am pretty sure I did not create it manually, so it must have |
| 25 |
come previously with some stable package, maybe udev197 (it has |
| 26 |
25-Jan-2013 time-stamp). |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
So yes, I had to "activate" new interface names manually by |
| 29 |
renaming the above mentioned file... |
