I'm happy to make this change if Frans thinks that it's not too late to do it. (FWIW, I can guarantee that changes proposed by Gordon are fully tested.) I think -e is better than -h since (afaik) it follows symlinks. > BTW, if we adopt this workaround, we will need to change > /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/nslu2 > which complains about the missing NPE-B microcode if the NPE driver Well, yeah, that would be nice but imho not strictly necessary because it's only a warning. It might confuse some users but to be honest the majority of users will run the unofficial image that has the microcode included anyway. > The assumption (and therefore the possible problem) with this > workaround is that the built-in interface will always be named eth0. > I have found this to be the case with an asix based USB to Ethernet > adapter.

I'm pretty sure I saw the same with pegasus, but I'm away from my box right now. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
