So for openSUSE 12.3 that will be the fix I guess. As biosdevname doesn't work properly, so we can't rely on it, plus back-porting net_id (way too much and intrusive), I guess I'll try to bring back the persistent rule and will give you some test rpm's to see if all works. The next release of openSUSE will contain all necessary parts (net_id, hwdb) so we can really drop persistent rules, but until then don't think there is another way. Werner, your idea with the small script is good, but this means that ifcfg-eth* has to be created before and a lot of people may not know how or yast2-network has to be modified, so for the moment, don't think is worth doing it, but your idea has been implemented by Fedora with something called "rename_devices". I don't like this, but don't see how else we could fix this fast. If anyone has a better idea, please speak out :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
