Package: udev Version: 0.114-2 Severity: normal
When uppgrading my sparc cp1500 from kernel 2.6.17.3 to 2.6.22.3 (my own build and config without initrd). I got the eth0 and eth1 renamed to eth0 eth1_rename. I do not know why this only happens for the later kernel but I did find out what it is trying to do. It is the persistent naming scripts that gets confused by the fact that the sparc has two network interfaces witht the same mac. This is something that sun dose on some of there boxes and is nothing I can change. Everything would be OK if it was possible to turn of this persistent naming but I could not find that option. I could also not find a configuration that ended up eth0 and eth1 being the same as the kernel named them. This forced me to rename the devices to something else and change the config script to this. ---- SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="08:00:20:9f:1a:56", ATTRS{ifindex}=="1", NAME="eth_a" SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="08:00:20:9f:1a:56", ATTRS{ifindex}=="2", NAME="eth_b" ---- And change all opther configuration that had the interface in them. dns, dhcp, interfaces, firewall plus a few more. Why is there not possible to turn off persistent naming ?? -- Package-specific info: -- /etc/udev/rules.d/: /etc/udev/rules.d/: total 8 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Feb 8 2006 020_permissions.rules -> ../permissions.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Feb 8 2006 udev.rules -> ../udev.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Sep 16 2006 z20_persistent-input.rules -> ../persistent-input.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Feb 8 2006 z20_persistent.rules -> ../persistent.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 711 Aug 18 22:19 z25_persistent-net.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 709 Aug 18 22:17 z25_persistent-net.rules~ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Sep 16 2006 z45_persistent-net-generator.rules -> ../persistent-net-generator.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Feb 8 2006 z50_run.rules -> ../run.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Feb 8 2006 z55_hotplug.rules -> ../hotplug.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Jan 9 2006 z60_hdparm.rules -> ../hdparm.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Sep 16 2006 z75_cd-aliases-generator.rules -> ../cd-aliases-generator.rules -- /sys/: /sys/block/loop0/dev /sys/block/loop1/dev /sys/block/loop2/dev /sys/block/loop3/dev /sys/block/loop4/dev /sys/block/loop5/dev /sys/block/loop6/dev /sys/block/loop7/dev /sys/block/ram0/dev /sys/block/ram1/dev /sys/block/ram10/dev /sys/block/ram11/dev /sys/block/ram12/dev /sys/block/ram13/dev /sys/block/ram14/dev /sys/block/ram15/dev /sys/block/ram2/dev /sys/block/ram3/dev /sys/block/ram4/dev /sys/block/ram5/dev /sys/block/ram6/dev /sys/block/ram7/dev /sys/block/ram8/dev /sys/block/ram9/dev /sys/block/sda/dev /sys/block/sda/sda1/dev /sys/block/sda/sda2/dev /sys/block/sdb/dev /sys/block/sdb/sdb1/dev /sys/block/sdb/sdb2/dev /sys/block/sdb/sdb3/dev /sys/class/input/mice/dev /sys/class/misc/device-mapper/dev /sys/class/misc/openprom/dev /sys/class/misc/psaux/dev /sys/class/misc/rtc/dev /sys/class/scsi_generic/sg0/dev /sys/class/scsi_generic/sg1/dev -- Kernel configuration: isapnp_init not present. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: sparc (sparc64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22.3 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages udev depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.13 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.6.1-1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libselinux1 2.0.15-2 SELinux shared libraries ii libvolume-id0 0.114-2 libvolume_id shared library ii lsb-base 3.1-23.1 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip udev recommends no packages. -- debconf information: udev/new_kernel_needed: false udev/reboot_needed: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
