[opensuse-factory] 13.1: no eth0 configured at boot
I'm running 13.1. I have a fixed ip-address configured for eth0 and it supposed to config with ifup. On boot, eth0 does not get configured. Running 'ifup eth0' does not configure eth0 either. Any tips to configure eth0 at boot or diagnose the issue?

Lots in the archives on this. Start diagnosis by running 'ifconfig -a' in a terminal.

This was an upgrade from 12.3 to 13.1. My ethernet adapter is still called eth0.

There is no eth0 or eth1 or whatever eth.. by default now. interfaces are named according to http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterface... .. that document contains instructions to "go back" to the old names.. -- "If debugging is the process of removing bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in." - Edsger Dijkstra -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Christian, I opened a bugzilla yesterday because after a 12.3 => 13.1 upgrade I didn't have a configured interface of any name. <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=845886> I had to go into yast and configure it before it showed up with any name. After configuring via yast, it showed up when I ran ifconfig. I assumed it was VMware related, but I don't know.

Hi 12.3 to 13.1 upgrade same here but on vbox. The upgrade knocked out what was usually eth0. ifup failed. I too ran yast where I found that the default route had been deleted. I re-entered it and yast completed whereupon ifup eth0 began working again. Will this be the norm for the upgrade to 13.1?

I upgraded from 12.3 to 13.1. I edited the interface in yast after finding it did not automattically configure eth0. Deleting and adding the interface did not make it work. I don't see any 'new' network names, just the old ones.

Which is the way it should be on an upgrade. What do you see in /etc/system/network/ ? I would expect to find e.g. ifcfg-eth0. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (14.7°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

I thought so - it is set by YaST (or you may edit the file directly). "ifplugd" means the interface is brought up when the cable is connected. I don't believe that is the default, I'm pretty certain "auto" is.
What other values can I specify?
"auto" is what I usually have, other options are "nfsroot" and "manual", possibly more. /Per -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

I used "yast2 lan" (or you can navigate to it from yast2 network), to edit the eth0 interface, under the general tab, change the 'Active Device' from what it is (mine was either on cable connection or something else) to 'At boot time'. It all seems to be working now. I changed 'auto' in the network/ifcfg-eth0 file back to 'ifplugd' and got the bad behaviour. So it looks like the issue is with ifplugd.

Plus maybe with the 12.3-13.1 upgrade - if your network interface was 'auto' before and ended up as 'ifplugd' after the upgrade, we'll need to look at that. I might do a test-upgrade myself. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.3°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Rich Could it be that you are bitten by bug 844146? Eventually I did a fresh install of 13.1RC1, and now I have a functioning network (with the new network names).
