Hi there!
Next unresolved issue regarding persistent-net.
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id\x192742
this rule is created:
SUBSYSTEM="net", DRIVERS="?*", ATTRS{address}="00:0c:29:0b:02:d2",
NAME="eth0"
But it does not work, as there seems no link to driver in sysfs.
Is that solvable, or does it only work if vmxnet driver itself gets fixed?
That question can also be formulated like this: Can DRIVERS="?*" hack be
replaced by something more clear?
Matthias

vmware has static device names anyway.

Not that I know, or you will end up breaking too many things.
