The background is that I have a network interface with a faulty mac adress (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF) on a K8N Neo2 (nforce3 ultra). So the kernel applys a random mac address to the network interface on every boot. At the shutdown process a entry with the randomly generated mac address will be written into /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. And that's my problem, because at the next boot another mac address will be applied to the network interface which does not match the one saved to persistent-net.rules and udev does not provide an interface eth0. rgds Bernhard -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
