Just out of curiosity, what does your udev rule hack look like?  I wrote
mine in Perl, which isn't available in the initramfs.  I'd be interested
to see your implementation if you care to share it.
it's just a hook sh script that does a copy of a fixed rules file prepared
for this class of machines, nothing generated dynamically. It contains:

copy_exec /usr/local/fai/alcc-ost/70-persistent-net.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/

and that's all.

Bye, Ralf

I think this is the bug I was hitting: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/182940


It may or may not be present in Debian as well. I'm going to grab that newer version of initramfs tools and stick on my Hardy boxes and see if a stock initrd works...


Respectfully,
Ryan
