Do any of those help?
No really. I am not sure I understand all of it. It seems to me that those people are trying to rename interfaces though? I am not, this is just a default clean install
IIRC, the renaming happens as part of normal boot-up. At first, the devices are enumerated by the kernel/drivers - eth0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. If you want 'predictable names', such as e.g. 'enp2s0', a renaming takes place. If you want to keep the ethX names, a renaming still takes place, as the initial kernel enumeration may not coincide with what you want. I'm sure we (openSUSE) also used names such as 'renameX' at some point, but I'm not aware of the current process. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (13.5°C) http://www.cloudsuisse.com/ - your owncloud, hosted in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
