Just my two cts: - I installed Jessie 32 bit under proxmox. So far, so good. - Then, I did a "qmrestore" (IOW: i copied the machine) - I altered the MAC address of the machine (of course) - Then I stumbled upon "waiting for /dev to be populated" on the copied machine, not the original one. I searched a bit and I found out that when I left the old eth0 entry in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, the "waiting for /dev" problem disappeared. Using eth1 instead of eth0 seemed to resolve the "waiting for /dev to be populated" problem. Finally, I found out the changing the "allow-hotplug eth0" stanza in /etc/network/interfaces to a simple "auto eth0" resolved the problem. Possibly this issue has nothing to do with the problem of the OP, but I just wanted to mention it. The problem is reproducable BTW.
