The firmware will always be loaded twice: once for eth1, then for ethN,
where N is the first never used number. Means with first try, you got eth1
and eth2, with second try you get eth1 and eth3, ...

I have the card here in the office for testing.
Comment 2 Christian Zoz 2005-09-01 09:57:21 UTC

root@rubicon should work for the next hours.
Its my private notebook.
Comment 4 Christian Zoz 2005-09-01 11:05:25 UTC 
works now. The new rules file /etc/udev/rules.d/30-net* was installed as rpmnew. 

This is intention, because this file may also contain user settings. And we
hadn't this file in previous releases. All i could do is to install the first
rule in this file in /etc/udev/rules.d/29-net*.
Comment 5 Christian Zoz 2005-09-01 16:36:13 UTC 
Moved this rule to a seperate file and left 30-net* %config(noreplace)
Comment 6 Andreas Schneider 2005-09-14 13:07:16 UTC 
After

rcnetwork stop
rcnetwork start

the renaming nightmare begins again!
Comment 7 Christian Zoz 2005-09-15 07:46:44 UTC
