Hi all,

I'm here asking for solutions for the Damned "Ethernet device
enumeration" problem!

I have a P5b Mobo for my office server, it has 2 integrated NICs, but
the order for eth0/eth1 changes at each boot! It's getting me mad!


I'm using slackware 11.0, kernel 2.6.21.3.

I know Suse and RHEL has a solution, but it integrates too many things
to get it working under slackware.

Any "easy"(not with so many dependencies) way?


Thanks,

Mauricio

Use udev with rules for keeping the ethernet interfaces consistant.

Thanks Nikolai,

In advance, have you got any url that might be of some help?

I'm searching for this right now.

Hi Mauricio,

Just read the following file:

/etc/udev/rules.d/network-devices.rules

and you should get an idea of what to do with it.
If not, send another e-mail to the list.

Cheers,
George Iosif

as a preface:

i've read suggestions about using udev and associated magic

as the nics integrated into the motherboard, reference to them must

Hadn't heard of ifrename before. That's really useful to know about
(although bizarrely it is part of the wireless-tools package under
fedora/red hat/centos).

Hi,

I'm just updating this thread to post useful information.

I was unable to use ifrename to do the trick ...

I have upgraded the server to slackware 12, since the disk mirroring was
incomplete when slackware 12 was released, so I decided to rebuild the
raid array and install slackware 12 on it :)

Tuning the file "/etc/udev/rules.d/75-network-devices.rules" as needed
seems to solve the problem.
I encourage everyone who uses slackware as you system to upgrade to v12 :)

Although I think samba 3.0.25b needs some "monitoring", got some strange
behavior from this version, downgrading brought everything back in place.

Thanks for all your help,

Mauricio

Hi,

I've this problems too, but I was using initrd to load many modules to
work with AoE, I can't change the interface using udev :(, I use the
solution was rename the interfaces using ip command intro the initrd
after up the interfaces.

Thanks in advance,
