Public bug reported: Binary package hint: upstart
I have added the following lines in /etc/network/interfaces to change the MAC Address: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp hwaddress ether 10:be:ef:00:00:01 When I restart networking (sudo invoke-rc.d networking restart) I get: u...@pc:~$ sudo invoke-rc.d networking restart [sudo] password for yannis: * Reconfiguring network interfaces... /etc/network/if-down.d/upstart: 9: initctl: not found run-parts: /etc/network/if-down.d/upstart exited with return code 127 There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid with pid 21705 killed old client process, removed PID file Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client V3.1.3 Copyright 2004-2009 Internet Systems Consortium.
