This will only affect new installations, right? Updates will have /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and everything will continue being as always?
(I call my interfaces "cable" and "air" for quite some time in order to find bugs in software expecting specific names and I would hate to have this overridden by some broken update logic as all the statistics would be off)
Yes, we will keep the support for it, but not for persistent naming. Meaning if you have the rule /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules then it will do it's job, but not new rules will be generated. This will help users who upgrade from older version and new users will use the new implemented fashion. -- Robert Milasan L3 Support Engineer SUSE Linux (http://www.suse.com) email: rmilasan@suse.com GPG fingerprint: B6FE F4A8 0FA3 3040 3402 6FE7 2F64 167C 1909 6D1A -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
