2006-08-17 Thread Timo Aaltonen
yes, well.. the better way would be to tell the installer to use a
specified MAC-address, not a eth-dev.. I'll reassign this for netcfg

** Changed in: udev (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: udev => netcfg

** Summary changed:

- edgy: eth0/1 assigned randomly on install
+ provide a method to use a specified MAC-address as the installation device

No, udev has no way of telling whether the device is wired or not.

Use /etc/iftab to force devices to have particular names: add lines like

 eth0 mac xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx arp 1
 eth1 mac xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx arp 1

These are written by the installer by default for the cards present when
you install.

oh, the wlan-card is a mini-pci one so taking it out before installing
isn't an option :)
