The bug here appears to be in the packaging, not the init script and/or code.
Example, I am using pcnet32/vmxnet with init.d. The upstream wiki says that I need to have the following in my modprobe config (I have it in modprobe.d/open-vm-tools): install pcnet32 /sbin/modprobe -q --ignore-install vmxnet; /sbin/modprobe -q --ignore-install pcnet32 $CMDLINE_OPTS; /bin/true; (source: http://open-vm-tools.wiki.sourceforge.net/Packaging) Without this, rebooting will cause the eth device to fail, as Craig described. -- network interface does not come up after installing open-vm-tools https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289921 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
