I'm not completely opposed to switching to the new name method. Your |
23 |
info about it being in dmesg is helpful. Now I know where that name is |
24 |
exactly. ;-) Do I just rename my current net.eth* files to the new way |
25 |
and it works or do I need to do something else or is there a automatic |
26 |
way to do this? |

That makes sense and was on my suspect list. I just didn't know where |
29 |
to get the new name from. |
