Package: udev Version: 232-25+deb9u1 Severity: normal On a Asrock AB350 Gaming K4 motherboard based machine running debian stretch we upgraded BIOS from P3.00 to P4.60 and this changed the integrated motherboard ethernet device name from enp10s0 to enp37s0. As a consequence we lost network connectivty and had to edit configuration files.
Initial BIOS: r8169 0000:0a:00.0 enp10s0: renamed from eth0 New BIOS: r8169 0000:25:00.0 enp37s0: renamed from eth0 On older versions debian /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules would have made the ethernet device name constant and we would not have lost network connectivity, so the current state of udev is an unfortunate regression. Is there a way to force generation of 70-persistent-net.rules? Thanks in advance, Sincerely, Laurent
