[gentoo-user] udev net persistent rules
When updating udev from a version without persistent rules to one which has them, how do I force the system to create 60-persistent-net.rules with the current ethn assignments *before* rebooting the system? I am updating remote systems using ssh, and had a problem whereby one system had reversed eth0 and eth1 after the upgrade. I want to make sure that upgrades to other systems do not have this problem by ensuring that the persistent net rules are created before rebooting after the upgrade (which also upgrades the kernel, hence the need for the reboot) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
