Subject: Bug#627931: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules not generated on
VMware
Package: udev
Version: 164-3
Severity: normal
On VMware the creation of /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules is
inhibited by the following block in
/lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules:
# ignore interfaces with locally administered or null MAC addresses
# and KVM and VMWare virtual interfaces
ENV{MATCHADDR}="?[2367abef]:*", ENV{MATCHADDR}=""
ENV{MATCHADDR}="00:00:00:00:00:00", ENV{MATCHADDR}=""
ENV{MATCHADDR}="00:0c:29:*|00:50:56:*", ENV{MATCHADDR}=""
ENV{MATCHADDR}="52:54:00:*|54:52:00:*", ENV{MATCHADDR}=""
Please remove the exception for VMware as it's possible to
choose different network drivers (vmxnet3/e1000) for virtual
machines and this have the same problem as normal PCs that
the system does not boot correctly after a new kernel is
installed.
bye,
