It gives eth0 to my wireless pcmcia card, and eth1 to my normal onboard ethernet pci card. However, I want them the other way around, eth0 for my pci card and eth1 for my wifi one, because I don't like all the confusion of my main card becoming eth0 when my wifi card is not in the pcmcia slot. So, what I did is this, as supported by latest udev.rules, to try and force the system: KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS{address}="00:09:5b:c2:ce:01", NAME="eth1" # wifi KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS{address}="00:a0:cc:de:27:0c", NAME="eth0" # ethernet But hotplug and your /etc/dev.d/net/hotplug.dev script completely ignores this and again names them the other way around... Is there any way around it? I am using udev 0.42, latest hotplug, kernel 2.6.8.1 on Arch Linux 0.7+. thank you, Eugenia ------------------------------------------------------- This Newsletter Sponsored by: Macrovision For reliable Linux application installations, use the industry's leading setup authoring tool, InstallShield X.
