No, oldsys-preseed always sets netcfg/choose_interface. Although now I'm starting to wonder whether this is a good idea... > The rule could go in rootskel for arm only, but it would need to be one > that only affected the nslu2 and not other arms.

The rule Gordon suggested could be included on all arm machines since it mentions the ixp4xx driver: # Built-in Ethernet Adapter (NPE-B microcode not present) SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="ixp4xx_mac", NAME="eth1" And then the unofficial ixp4xx image which contains the microcode would simply need to remove that file from the initramfs. Anyway, I'm away from my slug for the next 3 weeks, but maybe someone can try adding such a udev rule and the nic-modules udeb and see whether it works. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
