Yes it will, but with the correct information. the problem is that the old file had allocated eth0 and eth1 to MAC addresses not present in that machine. It will be recreated with correct MAC addresses for eth0 and eth1, so that the two cards will always be named the same way on each boot. I can see the reason for doing this, if you have two network cards it means they never get swapped over, without having to mess around with module loading order (which is an unreliable hack anyway). -- Neil Bothwick She's fine, upstanding, and wonderful laying down.
