I'm trying to persistently name a net card in fc6.
udev-095-17.fc6
cat 10-network-interface.rules
KERNEL=="eth*", SYSFS{address}=="00:a0:24:54:28:cb", NAME="lan"
before modprobe:
ls /sys/class/net
eth0 lo ppp0 sit0
then I modprobe 3c59x, udevmonitor shows:
UEVENT[1178971722.841091] add@/module/3c59x
UEVENT[1178971722.849159] add@/bus/pci/drivers/3c59x
UEVENT[1178971722.884779] add@/class/net/eth1
UDEV [1178971723.163556] add@/class/net/lan
BUT,
ls /sys/class/net
eth0 eth1 lo ppp0 sit0
so /class/net/lan is NOT created.
And why is eth1 created? I though the idea of NAME was that
it named the true device node. SYMLINK was used when you
wanted an extra name.
Thanks for any help.
