what i did to solve the problem is the following. This has been found on the debian link in the second post, now my Ethernet is always eth0
1. edit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules 2. remove all the existing entries and add a new one, something like SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="forcedeth", NAME="eth0" -- Ethernet device's number increases by one after every reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153727 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
