is Xen Creating a new MAC address each time it starts up the Virtual machine?
Udev caches the MAC to "ethX" relationship in a persistent file.. if the MAC
address doesnt match what is set in that file, it will create a new "eth"
number for it.
this is done so that devices such as USB to ethernet ports can be unplugged and
the machine started without them, the ethernet ports would not renumber and
foul up scripts.. so it saves the MAC to "eth" relationship

Subject: [Astlinux-users] Bug udevd[166] renamed network interface eth0 to ethX
Hi,
I installed AstLinux in a Xen virtual machine. Everything worked fine! (with
DHCP)
I set a static IP address. I restarted on the new IP, everything worked :-)
A few hours later, I turn off the virtual machine for maintenance, from,I have
no IP.
Error is:
<30> udevd [166] renamed network interface eth0 to eth1
It happened in "eth1", and each attempt to restart the interface enters one ...
eth2, eth3, eth4 ...
Error is:
<30> udevd [166] renamed network interface eth0 to eth2
Error is:
<30> udevd [166] renamed network interface eth0 to eth3
....
I do not understand this bug!
Mickael
