Bugzilla – Bug 303862
no network after upgrading from 10.2 to 10.3b2 due to incorrect config file conversion
Last modified: 2008-07-16 15:40:26 UTC
fresh 10.2, upgraded to 10.3b2 on mac.suse.de the network interface got not ip address after an upgrade. I see dhcpcd running, eth1 in UP state, but no ip address assigned. running tcpdump on eth1 shows no traffic. dmesg shows a few 'ip6_tables: limit match: invalid size 40 != 32'. I suspect the firewall has inadequate ipv6 support. iptables and ip6tables shows the INPUT chain in DROP state.
the upgrade moved the config from the interface with the cable attached to the interface without the cable attached.

Seems like a network installer problem to me; Michal, could you please look at it?
Christian, can you check you convert script? When there is _ANY_ configuration YaST is skipping it's setup
Olaf, can i have a look at this machine. Currently, mac cannot be reached.
its running again.
Problem was that persistent iface names udev rules were not converted: From y2logRPM: 2007-08-23 08:56:49 sysconfig-0.70.0-7.ppc.rpm installed ok Additional rpm output: `/etc/udev/rules.d/30-net_persistent_names.rules' -> `/etc/udev/rules.d/30-net_p Cannot lock /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules! /etc/sysconfig/network / Michal, you had this problem as well. What did you do to avoid it?
It's not solved yet, I use workaround during installation (force remove lock files and trigger udev event)
This should be fixed in #292375.
