I realized after my previous message that this bug relates to Gutsy in general, and not just the JeOS version..
My comment was specific to the JeOS build, which operates in a fundamentally different environment as a Virtual Machine, which leads to issues with the virtual NIC devices being a lot more dynamic than physical NIC devices. For example, if a VM is cloned, moved to another host, or even has some seemingly unrelated change made to its configuration, the MAC address of the VM can change - causing loss of connectivity for the VM on the next reboot, in a way that is non-trivial to diagnose. The scenarios described above are from my experience with VMware ESX, and may not come into play with Xen, KVM, MS Viridian, or others. -- [Gutsy] broken 70-persistent-net.rules https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145382 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
