Looks like there's two rules pointing to the same
device:
# PCI device 0x10de:0x00df (forcedeth)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTRS{address}=="00:e0:18:99:88:77", NAME="eth0"
# PCI device 0x10de:0x00df (forcedeth)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="00:13:8f:33:32:e2", NAME="eth1"
>From a forum I learned to rm the link eth0 in
/etc/init.d and make a new one, eth1 that points to
net.lo. So now the ethernet is up but there's still a
lot of complaining on the boot console, "can't find
eth0" etc.
BTW I was wrong about mii, forcedeth *is* the
appropriate module. The confusion arose because I was
expecting eth0 to be set up.
