I'm pretty sure you can use UDEV rules to set it, something like this: |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules |
| 51 |
BUS=="pci", KERNEL=="eth[0-9]", SYSFS{address}=="00:2a:9a:d4:65:32", \ |
| 52 |
NAME="lan0" |
| 53 |
BUS=="pci", KERNEL=="eth[0-9]", SYSFS{address}=="00:a0:5d:3e:ae:54", \ |
| 54 |
NAME="lan1" |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Where SYSFS{address} is the MAC address of the card. |
