[Bug 56679] Re: edgy: eth0/1 assigned randomly on install
yes, well.. the better way would be to tell the installer to use a specified MAC-address, not a eth-dev..

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. ** Changed in: udev (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Rejected -- edgy: eth0/1 assigned randomly on install https://launchpad.net/bugs/56679 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

oh, the wlan-card is a mini-pci one so taking it out before installing isn't an option :) -- edgy: eth0/1 assigned randomly on install https://launchpad.net/bugs/56679 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
